Directions

  1. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add onion and garlic, saute until onion is softened and browned, 10 to 15 minutes. Transfer onion and garlic to a plate.

  2. Cook pork and shrimp in the same skillet until browned, 5 to 7 minutes. Add back the onion and garlic, season with salt and pepper. Add jicama, bean sprouts, chickpeas, green beans, celery, and carrot. Cook and stir until vegetables are tender, about 5 minutes. Place filling mixture in a large bowl. Add peanuts and mix well.

  3. Place a lettuce leaf on top of a lumpia wrapper. Place 1 tablespoon filling onto the lettuce. Roll up the wrapper, folding 1 end over the filling. Place on a serving platter. Repeat with remaining lettuce, lumpia, and filling.

Recipe Yield

30 lumpia

Recipe Note

This is a delightful Filipino favorite. Caramelized onion adds sweetness, and peanuts add crunch to the lumpia filling. Serve with my recipe for fresh lumpia sauce (see Footnote).
