Assalaamu alaikum warahmatullaah,

I made this lastnight.

I experimented on the filling 'cause I think the original one is boring. Alhamdulillaah it turned out really good. Normally, they only put bean sprouts and/or chicken and/or beef and/or tuna. I put crushed basil leaves to give it a twist and lotsa carrots 'cause I love carrots!

* Get one Lumpia wrapper and careful not to tear it 'cause it's very thin.

* Take one heaped tablespoon of filling and place it at one edge of the wrapper.

* Roll it twice and fold the sides inwards then roll it again until it reaches the other edge and wipe water on it to seal.

* Continue doing it until all fillings are wrapped.
