Lumpiang Shanghai

Lumpiang Shanghai (also known as Filipino spring rolls, or simply lumpia or lumpiya) is a Filipino deep-fried appetizer consisting of a mixture of giniling (ground pork) with vegetables like carrots, chopped scallions or red onions and garlic,[1] wrapped in a thin egg crêpe.

The ground pork is sautéed with finely chopped carrots, garlic, onions, shallots, and salt and pepper to taste.

[3][7][6][8][9][10] It is commonly served with agre dulce (sweet and sour) dipping sauce (which accentuates its "Chinese-ness").

[3] Lumpiang Shanghai is one of the most ubiquitous dishes served in Filipino parties, along with variations of pancit (noodles).

Other ingredients may also be added, including green peas, raisins, cheese, peppers, milk, water chestnuts, singkamas (jicama), and kintsay (Chinese celery), among others.
