      1. Step 1: In a large bowl, thoroughly mix together the pork mince, grated carrot, diced onion, grated garlic, eggs, flour, oyster sauce, and a pinch of salt and white pepper according to taste.
      2. Step 2: Take a spring roll wrapper and place approximately 70-80g (2.5-2.8 oz) of the pork mixture at one end, positioned diagonally. Fold the sides towards the centre over the filling, then roll tightly. Use a small amount of flour-water slurry to seal the edges.
      3. Step 3: Heat the peanut oil in a deep fryer or a large, deep pan to a temperature of 175-180°C (347-356°F). Fry the spring rolls for 8-10 minutes, or until golden brown.
      4. Step 4: Serve hot with Chinkiang Vinegar as a dipping sauce.

      About this recipe

      The Lumpiang Shanghai is the Filipino version of a spring roll which has a crispy pastry on the outside and is usually filled with ground pork, carrots, onions, garlic, and oyster sauce, served with a vinegar based dipping sauce. I first tried them in the Philippines and absolutely loved them. Here's how you can make them at home.
