Chicken Lumpia Filipino Spring Roll (Print Version)

# Ingredients:

→ Main Filling

01 - 2 pounds ground chicken thighs
02 - 1 large carrot, grated (1 cup)
03 - 1 onion, grated (1 cup)
04 - 2 eggs
05 - 2 tablespoons oyster sauce
06 - 1 tablespoon soy sauce
07 - 2 teaspoons salt
08 - 2 teaspoons black pepper
09 - 2 egg whites, whisked

→ Filipino Smash Sauce

10 - 1/2 cup banana ketchup
11 - 1/2 cup mayonnaise
12 - 3 tablespoons relish

# Instructions:

01 - Combine ground chicken, grated carrot, grated onion, eggs, oyster sauce, soy sauce, salt, and black pepper in a large mixing bowl. Mix thoroughly using a wooden spoon or hands until well combined.
02 - Place the mixed filling into a large ziplock bag or a piping bag for ease of use during wrapping.
03 - Arrange and separate the lumpia wrappers to make wrapping easier and faster.
04 - Cut a small hole in the corner of the ziplock bag or use a medium-sized tip if using a piping bag. Pipe a line of filling onto the bottom edge of a lumpia wrapper. Roll tightly and use whisked egg whites to seal the edges.
05 - Repeat the wrapping process until all the filling has been used.
06 - Place wrapped lumpia on a baking tray and freeze for at least 1 hour before frying.
07 - Deep fry the lumpia in hot oil until golden brown. For best results, use tongs to place the lumpia seal-side down first to keep it intact.
08 - Serve the lumpia with sweet Thai chili sauce or Filipino Smash Sauce made by mixing banana ketchup, mayonnaise, and relish.

# Notes:

01 - Freeze the lumpia to maintain its shape during frying and ensure a crispy texture.
