LUMPIA - FILIPINO SHRIMP AND PORK EGG ROLLS
The traditional Filipino egg roll is small in size, but big on taste. More shrimp can be added to your taste, or omitted altogether. They can also be frozen for later consumption. Serve with store-bought sweet and sour sauce or spring roll sauce (available in Asian grocery stores).

Steps:
- Mix the ground pork, shrimp, onion, carrots, green onions, soy sauce, salt, pepper, and MSG in a bowl until well combined.
- Pull a wrapper off the stack, and cover the remaining wrappers with a damp cloth. Place the wrapper on a work surface. Place a thin line, about the width of your little finger, across one side of the wrapper, 1/2 inch from the edge of the wrapper. Roll the wrapper tightly around the filling, and seal the edges with egg white. Repeat making rolls with the remaining wrappers and filling, and cut the rolls into thirds.
- Heat the oil in a heavy pan or deep fryer to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Deep-fry 3 or 4 lumpia at a time, turning once, until the rolls float and turn golden brown, about 3 minutes. Serve hot.

BEST PORK AND/OR SHRIMP EGG ROLLS
From the American-Chinese food menu, this is the most authentic recipe for egg rolls we've seen. You can make pork egg rolls, shrimp egg rolls, combos, or half of them pork, half of them shrimp. Simply adjust the amounts of pork/shrimp to your liking. These freeze well and are great for OAMC. You can use ground pork, but for the best flavor, use leftover roast pork or rib meat, especially bbq'd. A great idea is to purchase a small order of ribs from the local chinese resteraunt, and cut and dice the meat from the bones for this recipe, or better still, try Recipe #329856 :)

PORK AND SHRIMP EGG ROLLS
My entire family loves these egg rolls. I have no idea where this particular recipe came from. Perhaps I "stole" it from someone, perhaps I got it out of a recipe book or magazine, or maybe I got it off the Internet back in its infancy. Somehow, I have a feeling that it may be bits and pieces of all these sources. In any case, this is the recipe I have made for many years and I am sticking to it! I truly hope you enjoy it because these eggs rolls are awesome.

Steps:
- - Heat the olive oil in a very large frying pan* and drop the pork cubes into it. Add 2 tablespoons of Teriyaki sauce, a pinch or two of salt and cook until well browned.
- - Add the shredded cabbage, bean sprouts, onions, garlic and carrots. Stir thoroughly and then add the remaining 2 tablespoons of virgin olive oil over the top. Stir thoroughly again. Other cooks like to mix the meat with the raw veggies and let the final frying cook the vegetables. However, I like to cook them a little first to get rid of some of the moisture (especially in the cabbage and sprouts). I have found that, if I get rid of some of the moisture first, the veggies will not shrink as much inside the wrapper later during frying and gives me a much firmer roll without large, empty pockets of air.
- - Sprinkle the Kosher salt, ginger and black pepper over the top. Add the soy sauce and stir until everything is evenly distributed.
- - Stir the mixture well several times until the cabbage becomes somewhat soft.
- - When the mixture has reached the desired consistency, turn off the heat and add the shrimp. Stir well and allow mixture to rest for about 10 minutes.
- - Have a small bowl of water ready. Take an egg roll wrapper out of the package; lay it flat so that one of the corners is pointing at your belly. Dip your fingers into the bowl of water and run them along all four edges of the wrapper so that they are all nice and moist.
- - Place (approximately) 2 to 3 tablespoons of the filling in the middle of the wrapper so that it forms an elongated hill that comes to about 1 inch from the left and right sides. Fold the bottom corner (the one near your belly) over the mixture and press the corner lightly into the middle of the wrapper. Fold the left and right corners of the rolled wrapper so they end up pointing at each other on top of the folded wrapper. Using slight pressure from your fingers, "roll" the wrapped mixture towards the top until you end up with your roll. Keep it as tight as possible as you roll but not too much or you may break the wrapper and it will be a mess when you fry it. (Holy Mung Beans, Batman! I hope that makes sense!).
- - FOR FRYING: I use vegetable shortening or canola oil, whichever I have on hand at the time. I also use my deep fryer but, in a pinch, I have used a deep frying pan with enough frying oil in it to completely cover the egg rolls. I have also heard that peanut oil does a great job but I am a cheapskate and don't want to spend the extra bucks.
- - Fry on medium-high heat. I have found that anything lower makes the wrappers a little soft and chewy and I like mine nice and crispy.
- - Now, you will find that egg rolls can be temperamental and some will follow basic orders but some won't. As you fry a batch, you will find that some of your egg rolls have turned over by themselves and some have not. You will also find that some will stay in the position once you turn them but some will absolutely refuse to turn; it seems that no matter how many times you turn them, they will turn back leaving the whitish, uncooked belly exposed. For those rebels, you may need to turn them and hold them under the oil with your utensil until they stay turned.
- - Fry until golden brown and "bumpy". Place on top of a cookie sheet covered with a thick layer of paper towels and let them "drain" for 10 minutes or so. Serve and enjoy!
- *I use my big Paella pan (see picture) which requires three burners to use. Otherwise, you may need to cook the filling in a couple of batches if your frying pan is not big enough. At times, your frying pan may not appear to be big enough but, after the cabbage and bean sprouts cook for a few minutes, the mixture will shrink so you may be able to keep adding the fresh veggies slowly and cook it all in one batch.).
- HINT: When filling the egg rolls, I place my frying pan (or Paella pan) on a flat counter. Then, I place a piece of board about 1.5 inches thick under one side of the pan. This puts the pan on a slight angle which allows the juices and sauce to drain to the lower end. I then start using the filling from the higher side with a slotted spoon. This method allows me to use dryer filling without the sloppiness of wet cabbage.
Tips:
- To make the egg roll wrappers, mix flour, salt, and water in a bowl until a dough forms. Knead the dough for a few minutes until it is smooth and elastic. Cover the dough with plastic wrap and let it rest for at least 30 minutes.
- To make the filling, cook the pork and shrimp in a pan with oil until they are browned. Add the cabbage, carrots, and green onions and cook until the vegetables are softened. Season the filling with soy sauce, sesame oil, and white pepper.
- To assemble the egg rolls, lay an egg roll wrapper on a flat surface. Place a spoonful of the filling in the center of the wrapper. Fold the bottom corner of the wrapper over the filling and roll it up tightly. Brush the egg roll with oil and fry it in hot oil until it is golden brown.
- Serve the egg rolls with dipping sauce.
