Vietnamese Lumpia with pineapple dipping sauce.

SNOWMAGEDON 2015 is happening right now, as I write, outside my house. So that means my 3 little munchkins are home with me. It is amazing these lumpia got made and ended up on a plate. Aside from SNOWPOCOLYPSE, it is also the week of “the big game”, the Super Bowl. I thought I would “kick-off” (hahaha) the week by making one of my favorite football foods, Lumpia. I know you don’t really think Lumpia when you think football, but it is the perfect combo. Fried, meaty goodness, with a delicious dipping sauce.

When my mom and dad were in the Airforce, one of the officer’s Vietnamese wife, invited my mom over to give her some lumpia. The wife was making them for a party later that day. I was really young at the time and while my mom was getting the recipe, I was taking bites out of all the lumpia she had neatly piled on a plate. Of course my mom was mortified and quickly left taking all of the lumpia that were mangled with my bite marks. What can I say, I loved the lumpia from the beginning.

Here are the ingredients you will be mixing in with your meat. Green onions, water chestnuts, onions, cabbage, soy sauce, and an egg.

Once you have everything mixed together, you will spoon a little of the filling on a wonton wrapper.

Roll it up and then put a little water along the seam of the wrapper. This will help the wonton stick together.
