Filipino Lumpia shanghai usually don't use bean thread noodles. My kids love lumpia with bean thread noodles like their Grandma's Vietnamese Eggroll.
This is tasty Eggrolls. It taste the same like deep fried. Crunchy/crispy wrapper and moist filling.

Notes:
  •  I prefer Spring Home TYJ Spring roll wrapper /pastry over wei chuan brand for making eggrolls. They are smooth, soft and more crispy.
  •  Brush or spray with vegetable when you flip your eggroll inorder to make it crispy and crunchy.
  • For Breville Smart Oven Air, I cook it longer. 400F for 18 minutes for fresh lumpia, 425F for 22 minutes for 3" and 5" Frozen Eggrolls. I did not brush my eggrolls when I flipped.
  • I updated my recipe - I added cornstarch and the meat sticks and holds well.

    1. Enjoy. I made lumpia every few days at home. It's my kids favorite. I usually make a lot, freeze it and just airfry whenever they want to eat.

    2. Thank you, I am not a cook but I love Filipino food & have found a nice lady in my town who sells frozen lumpia. Being accustomed to buying freshly cooked in a restaurant until this ugly virus came & with her not knowing how to air fry, I was lost! Thank you for your helpful website, I may even try making my own now!!

    3. You're welcome. I'm making my own lumpia wrapper now due to covid-19. I will post the wrapper recipe in a few weeks. I will try to take a step by step picture if possible.

  3. If you freeze them, do you have to spray them in vegetable oil still before putting them in the air fryer? Or can they just go in frozen?

    1. Yes, I either spray or brush them with vegetable oil.

    2. If you cook it without oil, it will not very crispy and you will not see the golden brown color. When I reheat them after a day or 2 from the fridge, I don't use any oil.
