Steps:
- Make the sweet chili sauce: In a small pot over medium heat, mix together ½ cup (120 ml) of water, the garlic, Fresno chilies, sugar, rice vinegar, and salt. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to low and simmer for 2 minutes.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the cornstarch and remaining tablespoon of water.
- Whisk the cornstarch slurry into the sauce until fully incorporated. Continue to simmer for 1 minute, or until the mixture has thickened. Remove from the heat and let cool.
- Make the lumpia: Julienne the carrots. Cut the green beans on the diagonal.
- In a large skillet, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Add the onion and cook for 3 minutes or until slightly tender.
- Add the garlic and ginger, and continue cooking for 2 minutes more, until fragrant.
- Add the carrots and green beans, and toss to combine. Add the shrimp, fish sauce, salt, pepper, and rice vinegar, and cook for 2 minutes or until shrimp is pink.
- Add the bean sprouts, toss to incorporate, and remove the pan from the heat.
- Lay out a lumpia wrapper in a diamond shape and spoon 2 tablespoons of filling onto the bottom of the wrapper, leaving about 1½ inches (4 cm) of space from the bottom point.
- Fold the bottom point over the filling, then fold in the edges to create an envelope shape. Roll the wrapper toward the top point. Brush the top point with egg wash and finish the roll to seal the end. Repeat with the remaining wrappers and filling.
- In a large, deep skillet, heat 1 inch (2.5 cm) of canola oil to 300°F (150°C).
- Carefully add 4-5 lumpia at a time to the hot oil. Fry on each side for 1-2 minutes, or until golden brown. Note: If the lumpia are cooking too quickly or burning, reduce the heat. Remove the lumpia from the oil and drain on a wire rack or paper towels.
- Garnish with cilantro and serve with the sweet chili sauce.
- Enjoy!

Steps:
- Place a wok or large skillet over high heat, and pour in 1 tablespoon vegetable oil. Cook pork, stirring frequently, until no pink is showing. Remove pork from pan and set aside. Drain grease from pan, leaving a thin coating. Cook garlic and onion in the same pan for 2 minutes. Stir in the cooked pork, carrots, green onions, and cabbage. Season with pepper, salt, garlic powder, and soy sauce. Remove from heat, and set aside until cool enough to handle.
- Place three heaping tablespoons of the filling diagonally near one corner of each wrapper, leaving a 1 1/2 inch space at both ends. Fold the side along the length of the filling over the filling, tuck in both ends, and roll neatly. Keep the roll tight as you assemble. Moisten the other side of the wrapper with water to seal the edge. Cover the rolls with plastic wrap to retain moisture.
- Heat a heavy skillet over medium heat, add oil to 1/2 inch depth, and heat for 5 minutes. Slide 3 or 4 lumpia into the oil. Fry the rolls for 1 to 2 minutes, until all sides are golden brown. Drain on paper towels. Serve immediately.

FRESH VEGETABLE LUMPIA
This is an adopted recipe that I've not yet had the chance to try, although it looks wonderful. I wasn't even sure what annatto seeds were, so I looked it up and here's what I found, from http://www.cuisinenet.com/glossary/achiote.html: "The small hard achiote seed, which is also called the annatto seed, is sold both whole and ground. It is prized in Indian and Hispanic cuisine for its slightly bitter, earthy flavor and russet color. In the United States, annatto extract is used to color butter, margarine, and cheese." I would say that if you can't find it, to try it without the annatto seed. That's probably what I'll do when I eventually make these. Any reviews by those who make this recipe before I do (or after, of course) would be appreciated. Thanks!
