Lumpiang Shanghai
Lumpiang Shanghai filled with ground chicken, water chestnuts, carrots, and green onions. Golden, crisp and in fun bite-size, these Filipino meat spring rolls are absolutely addicting!
Lumpia shanghai are a popular mainstay in Filipino food gatherings and special occasions. In fun bite sizes and served with sweet and sour sauce, they’re the perfect appetizer!
These Filipino spring rolls are usually filled with a mixture of ground chicken or pork, chopped vegetables such as carrots, onions, and jicama, and occasionally, minced shrimp. In my version, I use minced garlic to heighten flavor, chopped green onions for color, and water chestnuts for texture.
