Directions

  1. In a large bowl combine the pork, carrot, onion, water chestnut, bamboo shoots, garlic, ginger, soy sauce and pepper.
  2. Stir mixture until thoroughly combined-at this point you can cover and stick in the fridge over night.
  3. I lay out about 10 wrappers at a time, roll the meat mixture into cigar shapes about finger thickness-be reasonable-and the length of the wrapper.
  4. Roll, brush ends with beaten egg and finish the roll to seal.
  5. Place seam side down on a cookie sheet and repeat until done.
  6. Bake in a preheated 450 degree oven, turning once for around 20 minutes.
  7. They should be cooked through and the wrappers are golden brown.
  8. Serve hot.
  9. You can make these ahead of time and keep cooked lumpia in the fridge for up to 3 days, or frozen up to 4 weeks.
  10. To reheat (thaw if frozen) bake on baking sheet in a 450 oven for 10 minutes-turn rolls once.
  11. Dipping sauce----------------.
  12. In a 3 quart saucepan mix together the brown sugar, vinegar and soy sauce.
  13. Stir over high heat until sugar dissolves.
  14. Mix the cornstarch/water and add to the sugar mixture and stir until mixture boils.
  15. Remove from heat and stir in ginger.
  16. Makes 2/3 cup and you can double.

Bamboo shoots will emerge from the ground for a few inches and usually pause for about a week before continuing to shoot skyward. They are covered by a hard protective sheath at each node which is deciduous and falls away once the shoot fully extends outward. The sheath has several functions, one of which is to protect the new shoot as it extends its internodes. At this stage the new shoots have a high water content and are very soft. The diameter of the shoot at its base is the diameter that the new culm (cane) will have when fully mature and throughout its life. New shoots extend upward by extending its internodes similar to the way a telescoping antenna will extend by pulling on it. They are fully extended and hardened off in apx 6 weeks from emerging from the ground.
