Lumpia (Philippine Eggrolls or Spring Rolls)

Filipino eggroll recipe that was passed down from a good friends Mother of mine.

Tasty eggrolls that can be made ahead and frozen. You can pull a few out anytime you crave a taste of the islands!

Notes: Great with sweet & sour dipping sauce or Thai chili sauce. You can freeze the lumpia before frying. Freezing helps wrappers stay sealed.
