Homemade options can be healthier and cheaper.

Prepare the filling by mixing ground pork, fermented shrimp, sitaw, coconut cream, onion, garlic, green chili, salt, magic sarap, pork cubes, and black pepper in a bowl.

Heat a skillet over medium heat and sauté the mixture until cooked through, about 5-7 minutes.

Let the filling cool slightly before wrapping.

Take a lumpia wrapper and place a spoonful of filling near one corner.

Fold the corner over the filling, then fold in the sides, and roll tightly to seal.

Repeat with remaining wrappers and filling.

Heat cooking oil in a deep pan over medium-high heat until shimmering.

Fry the lumpia in batches until golden brown, about 3-4 minutes per side.

Remove from oil and drain on paper towels.

Serve with sweet chili sauce on the side for dipping.
