Get this recipe for Lumpiang Sariwa. A kind of Filipino Spring Rolls that is filled with various vegetables, sweet potato, shrimps, and meat. Wrapped in a crepe-like wrapper and covered with a special sweet-savory sauce.
Lumpiang Sariwa is another variety of Filipino spring rolls. It literally translatesto Fresh Spring Rolls. The filling is composed of various vegetables, some shrimps, and meat. Firm Tofu may also beadded. The filling is then wrapped or rolled in a crepe-like wrapper. We call it fresh because you do not fry it as we do the other spring rolls, likeLumpiang Shanghai and Lumpiang Prito or Togue. It also has a special sauce that is sweet and savory and then topped with chopped peanuts. 
The sauce is really a breeze to make. It is mainly a concoction of water, soy sauce, brown sugar, cornstarch, and garlic, cookeduntil it becomes thick and flavorful.
Lumpiang Sariwa can be served as appetizers but it is also popularly eaten as an afternoon snack or for those who want to have a light meal (or lose weight), it will also be perfect for dinner. Most recipes would ask for pork belly strips for the filling but I used ground pork instead. It not only lessens the cooking time but I also liked that the meat is better distributed or mixed with the veggies.

Ingredients
FILLING
- 2 tablespoons oil
- 2 cloves garlic - minced
- 1 medium onion - chopped
- ½ cups ground pork
- 3 ½ ounces firm Tofu
- 10 pieces prawns - shelled and deveined
- 1 ½ cup sweet potato - cubed or cut into strips
- 1 medium carrot - julienned
- ½ cup water
- 2 cups cabbage - shredded
- 2 tablespoons fish sauce
- salt and pepper
WRAPPER
- ¼ cup all-purpose flour
- ½ cup cornstarch
- 1 teaspoon white sugar
- pinch of salt
- 2 eggs
- ½ tablespoon oil
- 1 cup milk
SAUCE
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce
- ⅛ teaspoon salt
- ⅓ cup brown sugar
- 2 cups water
- 3-4 big cloves garlic - minced
- 2 tablespoons cornstarch - dissolved in ¼ cup water
TOPPINGS AND GARNISH
- peanuts - chopped, for toppings
- 5 lettuce leaves
Instructions
FILLING
In a wok or skillet, saute garlic and onion in oil over medium heat until limp. Add the ground pork and cook for 3 minutes stirring constantly to remove lumps. Next, add the tofu and cook for 3 minutes or until edges are lightly golden. Add the prawns and cook until it turns pink all over.
Add the sweet potato, carrots, and water. Let it cook for another 3 minutes or until the sweet potatoes are just cooked. Add the cabbage and fish sauce. Season with salt and pepper as needed and cook for a few minutes more just until the cabbage is done.
Transfer to a colander to remove excess liquids if any. Let it cool down a bit. Meanwhile. prepare the wrappers and sauce.
WRAPPER
In a bowl, combine all the dry ingredients for the wrapper. Add a quarter of the milk and whisk to make a paste. This is to prevent lumps from forming. Then add the rest of the ingredients while whisking continuously. Run the runny batter into a sieve to have a smoother batter and later smoother wrappers.
Heat a non-stick crepe pan over low heat. Spray or brush the pan with a little amount of oil. Pour half a cup of batter into the pan and immediately tilt from side to side in a circular motion to cover the bottom with the batter. Cook for 2-3 minutes or until the batter is no longer liquid and no longer sticks to the pan. Do not let it turn brown. You may need to flip it over but as long as the top has also dried out, then no need. Transfer wrapper to a plate and set aside.
SAUCE
Now to prepare the sauce. Just combine all the ingredients, except the cornstarch mixture in a saucepan and bring it to a soft boil over medium-low heat. Let it cook for 3 minutes. Add the cornstarch mixture and cook while whisking constantly until the sauce becomes thick,
ASSEMBLY
To assemble, place a wrapper on a plate or on a flat surface and place a lettuce leaf on top. Spoon some fillings across the middle half of the wrapper. Fold in the wrapper into the center starting from the bottom and then the sides cover filling.
Pour some sauce on top of the wrapped Lumpia then sprinkle with chopped peanuts.

Is there something I need to adjust if I omit the tofu? Planning to cook this one of these days as I have all the ingredients but the tofu. Do I have to add something in place of tofu?
Reply
Bebs says
You can simply omit it, or add more of the other veggies.

Can’t wait to try your lumpiang sariwa recipe.. I wonder if i can cook the wrapper a day before ? Thank you xx
Reply
Bebs says
Hi Amie, the wrapper is similar to crepes, it is best made fresh. But if you can find a way to store it that it will not dry out and harden then go ahead.

I just recently made this recipe, I have my own recipe for the filling and the wrapper, but what takes it over the edge was the sauce. Over the years i have tried to replicate the sauce that i have grown to love but no luck. then i found your recipe for the sauce and it was on point! thank you so much for sharing this.
