Lumpiang Shanghai

July 24, 2016 by Manny 5 Comments

Lumping shanghai is a fried springroll with meat fillings, an all time favorite finger food or viand among Pinoys. You will never miss this springroll in most Filipino restaurants or fastfood. Making this dish is so simple yet so appetizing specially if you combine it with your favorite dipping sauce. Unlike other kinds of springroll, you can’t increase the thickness of the filling because you are using ground raw meat. It’s because when you fry it, you will burn the wrapper before the meat inside the lumpia is cooked if the filling is too thick. And with regards to the meat used in the filling, you can use beef or chicken if you abstain from eating pork.

    Hi Manny!
    My husband and I love lumpia so much I wish I could cook it everyday. Problem is we are trying to keep away from deep fried foods and we don’t appreciate the oily lumpia scent that lingers in the house after cooking it. Any suggestions on how I can bake it instead?
    Thank you so much!

      Hi Mitch, yes you can bake this lumpiang shanghai using this method. Preheat oven to 450°F and place the lumpia on a baking sheet or cookie sheet, seam side down. You can also grease the baking sheet first before placing the lumpia. Then bake for 10 minutes, turn once, then bake for another 5 minutes or until golden brown.
