Lumpia

  Re: (...)
Does anyone have a great T&T recipe for Lumpia filling? My hubby worked the beer/food tent at the Air Force Rodeo a few weeks back and is convinced he can make me shrimp balls and lumpia now. We will probably try them next week after he is back from his trip (now that he has probably forgotten the recipes). I'd like to have a recipe as a back up...

This is my T&T for the catering biz.


Minced garlic (3 cloves)
Minced onion (2 small)
1/4 tomato puree
1 tbsp fish sauce
1 pound of minced beef
1/2 pound of minced pork
1/2 pound minced ham
3 bay leaves
1 cup water
salt
white pepper
20 lumpia wrappers

Brown it, drain it, combine it simmer it, drain it a long time, assemble it, roll it, fry it.

I like them with vinegar garlic sauce

1/4 Thai vinegar (or white)
3 cloves garlic
1/2 tsp salt

mix throughly makes for one person.

Lumpia is similar to an egg roll or spring roll. It is Phillipino. They are yummy. Heavier on the pork than on the vegis of spring rolls or egg rolls.

Lumpia is an eggroll type food common to the Asian Island nations, as well as some of the coastal asian continent countries.

Most commonly the wrapper differs from an eggroll wrapper in that it is made of rice. Very light, very thin.

Two type of lumpia are common. Fresh lumpia, many times referred to as Spring Rolls and Fried lumpia many times called dinner lumpia.

Fillings vary from region to region. But the three most common are vegetable lumpia, Pork lumpia, and seafood lumpia.

They are commonly rolled to the size of your thumb for thickness and generally just short in length of a standard size cigar.

Recent trends in California have Fresh Lumpia type appetizers composed of fresh vegetables wrapped in a lettuce leaf with a dipping sauce.

I sometimes make them using wonton wrappers with just a teaspoon of the mixture in the center, looks kind of like the Crab Rangoon.

Bob, I would like the variant recipes please...and how about an Adobo recipe or two or three?
Don't wait too long to tell someone you love them.
