Ingredients:

- 1 tsp of Soya sauce (Kikkoman)
- Cooking oil
- Salt
- Pepper
- Sugar
Cooking Instructions (filling part):
- Fry the chopped garlic with small amount of cooking oil
- Add the carrot and fry until it is cooked
- Add the rice noodle and fry for 5 min
- Add the dried shrimp and mix well. Fry for around 5 min.
- Add the soya sauce
- Add the salt, sugar and pepper (the amount is usually according to your taste)
Taste it before you turn off the stove. Then, it is ready to be put inside the spring roll pastry. How? See the pictures below.
Please note that we only need to put around one table spoon of filling part into the spring roll pastry. And we can use the mix of flour and water to glue the last corner of the spring roll pastry. Some people use white part of egg, but my friend suggested me to use mix of flour and water. She said it would be better.
Frying instructions:
- Simply prepare the pan with some cooking oil. We do not need to soak all parts of lumpia into the hot oil, therefore do not put too much oil.
- Fry the lumpia for a while, just until the spring roll pastry becomes a little bit golden.
- We may put some lumpia together according the size of the pan.
- When it is ready, put the lumpia on a oven pan covered with the cooking paper. This paper is to absorb the oil during the baking time in the oven. Yes, two ways of cooking, in the pan and in the oven.
- Prepare the oven in 180 degree.
- Place the oven pan inside the oven and bake for about 15 minutes. Turn all the lumpia to other side, then bake again for 15 minutes.
