What is authentic lumpia made of?
But what is lumpia, anyway? They’re a Filipino version of spring rolls made with lumpia wrappers and typically filled with ground pork, carrots and onions, cabbage, ginger, garlic, and soy sauce.

What oil do you use to fry lumpia?
To fry your lumpia, heat about a quart of vegetable oil in a wok or high-sided sauté pan over medium heat (the oil should be at least three inches deep). Cohen says the most important aspect of frying lumpia is making sure that the oil is hot—really hot.
Do you need to thaw frozen lumpia before frying?

Technique tip: You can also “oven-fry” the lumpia. Spray a rimmed baking sheet with nonstick cooking spray and arrange the lumpia on the baking sheet with an inch of space between them. Spray the lumpia with cooking spray. Bake in a preheated 425°F oven until deep golden brown, 20-25 minutes.
Can I make lumpia ahead of time?
You can make the lumpia filling up to 4 hours ahead; cover and refrigerate. You can hold uncooked rolled lumpia under damp towels at room temperature for up to 1 hour, or freeze them in a single layer on baking sheets; once frozen, transfer to freezer bags and freeze for up to 1 month.
