This Lumpiang Shanghai is one of the delicious snacks for
the Asians. I am not sure if this dish originated in Shanghai,
a city in Mainland China.
But there is one thing I am sure of- Lumpiang Shanghai is mouthwatering. There
are many ways how to cook this dish. By combining the replacements for the
common ingredients you can make your own kind of it. I know how to cook many
versions of it. My original ones and the ones I gathered by asking my relatives
who know how to cook Lumpia. If by any chance you are having a visitor, I would
like to suggest this one for you to cook because the ingredients are not that
expensive. But if you are living in the West, looking for the wrapper sometimes
cost you time and effort because the Lumpia wrapper is not very common in
there. I would suggest go to the Chinese grocery stores. This Lumpiang Shanghai
recipe is just an easy and simple version of it but don’t worry because its
simplicity will give you the appeal and you will appreciate every bite. Here is
my step by step procedure on how to cook Lumpiang Shanghai:
