LUMPIA (SHANGHAI VERSION)



Lumpia (Shanghai version) image

A recipe I know all Filipinos are proud of! Lumpia (shanghai type) is a type of egg roll, except it's mainly filled with meat. You could use pork or beef or both! It's a yummy recipe and great to serve as finger food. I like to use both beef and pork but you can substitute one for the other. VERY EASY!

Time 1h20m

Yield 20

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 pound ground pork
1 pound ground beef
1 medium onion, finely chopped
1 carrot, grated
¼ cup soy sauce
2 ½ teaspoons black pepper
1 ½ tablespoons garlic powder
2 tablespoons salt
1 (16 ounce) package spring roll wrappers
1 ½ quarts oil for frying

Steps:

  • In a Large bowl, combine ground pork, ground beef, onion, and carrot. Make sure to completely mix everything. I suggest getting down and dirty and use your hands. Knead the meat in the bowl if you must. Gradually blend in the soy sauce , black pepper, garlic powder, and salt until all ingredients are evenly distributed.
  • Lay out a few wrappers at a time on a flat surface, and place about 2 tablespoons of the filling in a line down the center of the wrapper. Make sure the filling is no thicker than your thumb, or the wrapper will cook faster than the meat. Take the bottom and top edges of the wrapper and fold them towards the center. Take the left and right sides, and fold them towards the center. Moisten the last edge of the wrapper to seal. Now repeat using the rest of the wrappers, and have hubby or the kids help you out.
  • Heat the oil in a deep-fryer or heavy skillet to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Fry 3 or 4 lumpia at a time. Fry for about 3 or 4 minutes, turning once. Lumpia are cooked through when they float, and the wrapper is golden brown. Cut in half, or serve as is with dipping sauce. We like sweet and sour sauce, soy sauce with lemon, or banana ketchup.

SHANGHAI PORK AND SHRIMP SPRING ROLLS



Shanghai Pork and Shrimp Spring Rolls image

I decided to make another variation on classic spring rolls other than mine that I've been using and chose this recipe based on ingredients used. The recipe comes from A. Nguyen "Asian Dumplings". Although her recipes calls for 18-20 spring rolls, I find 18 better than 20 unless you increase the ingredient amount a bit more or prefer thinner spring rolls. I have altered the recipe somewhat to make it easier for my own cooking method and taste. There are several variations on shaping spring rolls and I've decided to use a method that may be easiest to work for most people. Tastes wonderful with Sweet and Sour Sauce, Recipe #447509 I've posted from the same book.

Categories     Pork

Time 20m

Yield 18-20 spring rolls

Number Of Ingredients 17

1/2 teaspoon sugar
1/2 teaspoon cornstarch
1/2 lb pork tenderloin or 1/2 lb pork sirloin roast, cut into 2 inch long matchsticks
1/3 lb medium shrimp, peeled, deveined and coarsely chopped
3 dried shiitake mushrooms (large)
1 1/2 tablespoons cornstarch
3 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 teaspoon grated ginger
2 garlic cloves, minced
1/2 cup shredded bamboo shoot
1/2 lb bean sprouts
salt, to your taste
pepper, to your taste
18 spring rolls, skins
oil (for deep frying)
1 tablespoon cornstarch
1/2 cup water

Steps:

  • Combine sugar, 1/2 teaspoon cornstarch, soy sauce, pork, and shrimp in a bowl and stir. Set aside.
  • In a bowl, rehydrate shitake mushrooms in hot water just enough to cover until softened. Depending on mushrooms used this can take anywhere between 15-30 minutes to soften. Reserve the liquid for dissolving cornstarch. Cut off the stem and cut into very thin match stick pieces.
  • In a small cup dissolve 1 1/2 T cornstarch with 3 T of reserved mushroom soaking liquid. This will be used to thicken the filling mixture.
  • Heat 1 1/2 T oil in a large skillet over medium high heat and add ginger and garlic. Cook for about 30 seconds until fragrant but not browned and add pork and shrimp mixture. Stir constantly to separate the pork pieces and shrimp into nuggets and cook for about 2 minutes. Do not overcook. Transfer to a dish.
  • Add the remaining 1 1/2 T oil to the skillet on medium high heat. Add shitake mushrooms, bamboo shoots, bean sprouts, salt and pepper. Cook 5 minutes stirring constantly. Return the pork and shrimp mixture to the skillet and stir to combine. Lower the heat and give the cornstarch mixture a stir and pour over the filling. Cook for about 30 seconds to bind the mixture. Transfer to a bowl to cool completely.
  • In a small cup combine 1 T cornstarch with 1/2 C water to seal spring roll skin.
  • Lay a spring roll skin on the work surface making sure one of the pointy corner is facing you. Put about 2 T of filling slightly below the center towards you and form into log shape using your fingers.
  • Lift the bottom edge towards you up and over the filling tucking the point under it. Fold in the sides and brush the upper edges with cornstarch and water mixture. Roll away from you (bottom up) to seal. Set the finished rolls seam side down on the baking sheet covered with wax paper or aluminum foil and keep covered with a kitchen towel to prevent drying.
  • Heat 1 inch of oil in a deep skillet over medium high to about 350F degrees. Slide in a few spring rolls and fry, turning as needed for about 3 minutes or until golden brown and very crisp.
  • Remove from the oil and drain. Continue with the remaining rolls. To serve, cut diagonally in half. Serve with a vinegar or dipping sauce of your choice.

SHANGHAI SPRING ROLLS (OR EGG ROLLS)



Shanghai Spring Rolls (Or Egg Rolls) image

When I had my restaurant my customers said these were the best they ever had. The recipe is adapted from "The Chinese Menu Cookbook" by Joanne Hush and Peter Wong. In case anyone is interested, the difference between an egg roll and a spring roll is the wrapper. Spring rolls use a very light, delicate wrapper that requires a lot of care to keep from getting holes poked in it. Egg roll wrappers are an egg noodle dough, exactly the same as wonton wrappers but larger in size. This filling can be used with either. The secret is to squeeze out the moisture after cooling so it doesn't soak through the wrapper during deep frying. They should be deep fried at relatively cool temperature (325° - 350°F) until about half cooked. Then either refrigerate or freeze until ready to serve. Finish the deep frying at 375; this double process insures a well cooked, hot inside with a golden brown crispy outside. (Defrost if frozen). Warning: use only raw pork, chicken and shrimp or you will be very disappointed with the results. It's tempting to buy cooked TT shrimp but resist the temptation!

CANTONESE CHAR SIU PORK AND VEGETABLE SPRING ROLLS



Cantonese Char Siu Pork and Vegetable Spring Rolls image

Categories     Sauce     Pork     Vegetable     Side     Fry     Roast     Spring

Yield makes 12 rolls, serving 6 to 8 as a snack

Number Of Ingredients 18

Filling
3/4 teaspoon sugar
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon white pepper
2 teaspoons light (regular) soy sauce
1 1/2 tablespoons oyster sauce
2 tablespoons water
2 tablespoons canola oil
2 scallions (white and green parts), chopped
2 cups lightly packed finely shredded cabbage (omit thick center spines)
1 cup finely chopped celery
1 carrot, cut into fine shreds (about 1 cup)
1/2 pound Char Siu Pork, homemade (page 224) or store-bought, cut into 1 1/2-inch-long matchsticks
1 tablespoon cornstarch dissolved in 1 1/2 tablespoons water
12 Cantonese spring roll skins (page 64)
1 large egg, lightly beaten
Canola or peanut oil, for deep-frying
1 cup Sweet and Sour Sauce (page 217), or 2 tablespoons unseasoned rice vinegar, Chinese black vinegar, or balsamic vinegar mixed with 1 teaspoon chile oil (page 216)

Steps:

  • To make the filling, combine the sugar, salt, white pepper, soy sauce, oyster sauce, and water in a small bowl. Stir this flavoring sauce well and set aside.
  • Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the scallions and cook, stirring, for about 30 seconds until soft and aromatic. Add the cabbage, celery, and carrot, stirring to combine well. Cook, stirring frequently, for about 1 minute, until the vegetables have collapsed slightly. Add the flavoring sauce, stirring to combine, and continue cooking for about 2 minutes, until most of the liquid has disappeared and the vegetables have just cooked through. Add the pork and continue cooking, stirring to combine the flavors and heat through, about 1 minute. Give the cornstarch a final stir, and pour over the filling mixture. Cook for about 30 seconds, to bind the mixture nicely. Transfer to a platter and spread out. Set aside to cool completely before using. You should have about 3 cups. (The filling can be prepared 2 days in advance, covered, and refrigerated after cooling. Return to room temperature before wrapping.)
  • Before assembling the spring rolls, line a baking sheet with parchment paper and lightly dust with cornstarch. For each spring roll, use about 1/4 cup of filling, placing it slightly below the center of the skin. Follow the directions on page 75 to create the cigar shape, taking care to not wrap too tightly because you want just two layers of skin around the filling. Before rolling up the spring roll all the way to seal it, brush beaten egg on the upper two edges to ensure that the skin seals well. Set the finished rolls, seam side up, on the prepared baking sheet. Cover with a kitchen towel to prevent drying.
  • Fry the rolls in two stages. Heat 1 inch of oil in a wok, saucepan, or deep skillet over medium-high heat to about 350°F on a deep-fry thermometer. (If you don't have a deep-fry thermometer, stick a dry bamboo chopstick into the oil; if bubbles rise immediately to the surface and encircle the chopstick, the oil is ready.) Slide in few spring rolls and fry for about 1 1/2 minutes, turning as needed, until light golden. Remove from the oil and drain on paper towels. Repeat with the other rolls. These rolls soft en as they sit, so after their first frying, refry them for 45 to 60 seconds in 350°F oil until crispy and golden brown.
  • Serve hot, whole or cut in half diagonally, with the dipping sauce of your choice.

Tips:

  • Use a variety of fillings: Don't be afraid to experiment with different fillings, such as ground pork, shrimp, vegetables, or even fruit. The possibilities are endless!
  • Keep the filling moist: Add a little bit of liquid to the filling, such as water, broth, or soy sauce, to keep it from drying out.
  • Use a thin wrapper: Spring roll wrappers are very thin, so be careful not to overfill them. Otherwise, they will be difficult to roll and seal.
  • Roll the spring rolls tightly: Make sure to roll the spring rolls tightly so that they don't come apart during frying.
  • Fry the spring rolls until they are golden brown: This will ensure that they are cooked through and crispy.

Conclusion:

Shanghai pork and shrimp spring rolls are a delicious and versatile appetizer that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. They can be made with a variety of fillings and are a great way to use up leftover ingredients. Whether you are serving them at a party or enjoying them as a snack, spring rolls are sure to be a hit.
