Using a melon baller, scoop about 1.5 to 2 scoops of the filling and spread it across one end of the wrapper.

Apply egg wash across the far end of the wrapper to help seal it.

Fold the end of the wrapper over the filling tightly, ensuring the meat is evenly spread.

Continue rolling the wrapper tightly, using the egg wash to seal the end.

Heat oil in a deep frying pan until hot enough for frying.

Fry the lumpia in batches until golden brown and crispy, then drain on a tray.
