Here's a link to the written recipe: www.paulaq.com/lumpiaguamrecipe.html

[@stan1027]

I was stationed on Guam, at Andersen AFB, and I must have bought a ton of Lumpia from the NCO Club while I was stationed there. Love it!

[@insomnimommy5378]

So all of my family originated from Guam. We always have Chicken Adoble (dunno if that's spelled right) at least 4 times a month. Love that I can connect more to my culture via these recipes

[@doloresonofre2684]

I make my lumpia with bean sprouts, carrots, cabbage, green beans and raisins. sometimes I also add shrimp. And I just season it with light soy sauce and pepper that's it. And I use the lumpia wrapper that is individually separated. I only use that kind of wrapper and yes the wrapper you use does make a difference. I never use those Menlo wrappers because I don't like the taste. it is not flaky. And I do use ground beef and ground pork...mix that. Yup my family loves my lumpia lol!!! oh yes and don't forget the sauce... which is vinegar and a little bit of soy sauce and fresh garlic minced and Bam..... delicious! 😋 oh yeah and I use the egg wash to seal it.

[@doloresonofre2684]

I buy the blue box lumpia wrapper they are already individually separated with paper in between. Makes life easier. A little more expensive but worth it. To me anyway!

[@rosariopodgorscak965]

OMG! My mother is from Guam, and this is exactly how I remember her making the lumpia! Now the tradition has passed to my own daughter

[@clynnbailey37]

i use a raw filling and spread thin on the wrappers to make sure its cooked evenly. I dont think ive ever had it or seen anyone cook the meat first

[@DHodges187]

I miss Living on GUAM so MUCH!!!! More Pancit pleeeeeeze....... Now IM starving . thank you.

[@paulsmallriver6066]

It has been so very long that I was in Guam and oh how I miss the marvelous food. GOing to buy the cookbook for sure.

[@GuamMamaCooks]

Thank you!

[@NereidaDelgado-l7c]

I really miss it. I thank Guam for all the wonderful people I meet there.

[@staceydean619]

My Filipino MIL always uses ground pork and drained French cut green beans in the place of carrots. She also uses the red packaged "Menlo" brand of wrappers.

[@CHAM0RRITO]

Lumpia (and pancit for that matter) became common at fiesta tables during post WWII Guam with the arrival of many Filipino laborers to Guam. Filipino products were imported by both military and private importers. Chamorros learned the preparation from those laborers and prepared lumpia to their liking.

[@garypenley1014]

Don't stop posting your how to dishes. My wife and I live in the Philippines and even if we can't get all the thing needed to mimic you dishes we do the best we can. We really enjoy the car trips you have posted. Thanks

[@GuamMamaCooks]

+Gary Penley Thank you for your kind words Gary!

[@consolacionarguzon469]

Good try! It looks delicious and I am happy for you for trying our Filipino lumpia. Watching from Long Beach, California. 3/30/22. 👍🏼

[@GuamMamaCooks]

Thank you for your kind words, Consolacion!!

[@heather_bot]

i commented before the end of the video but i REALLY appreaciate you saying how to store the cooked lumpia for a party!! i was wondering even before you said.

[@GuamMamaCooks]

Håfa Adai, Heather, glad to be of help!

[@nancyroberson2613]

My mom would use chicken after boiling and shredding plus shrimp; her only spices were garlic and onion powder plus soy sauce, still is as good, also cabbage, carrot and fresh cut green beans. If she uses ground beef, she would use carrots, bean sprouts and green onions as filler. No matter how you make it, it is always appreciated in our Tamuning fiesta parties. God bless you Paula Q., for sharing your heart and recipes. I love them all.

[@GuamMamaCooks]

Thank you, Nancy!!

[@bbmoments8573]

Dang! Those not only look delish, but they sound amazing! Awesome!

[@misspimake]

This is the ONLY wrappers I use! I’ve tried the others and none compares to Simex Lumpia wrappers. I get the blue package, so much easier than the red pkg. I sell my lumpias and all my lumpia eaters love the crispy wrappers. ❤️

[@GuamMamaCooks]

Awesome!

[@jayangeles552]

my mama is there also

[@sheilaclark8617]

Mama…you need the BLUE ziplock-that’s the freezer ones. Also I put my wrapped lumpia on a dinner plate-stick in freezer for 7-10 min, then transfer to the Blue ziplock w/no wax paper. Loved hearing you say Finidenni sauce, Pansit and red rice! Sorry for spelling, I was stationed on that BEAUTIFUL Island (with Beautiful People) 1988-92, so spelling eludes me. But I can still smell the Lumpia! And I was taught to use egg whites for the glue. Enjoy! I have some in the freezer as we speak! Here in Pennsylvania it is VERY hard to get the right wrappers, so I know what you mean.

[@GuamMamaCooks]

Yes, though they didn’t have the blue ones when I made the video. I stock up on the blue ones these days!

[@sheilaclark8617]

@@GuamMamaCooks I understand 🙄 when I was there…the Entire Island ran out of Ketchup! 🤪

[@lalavisayas7562]

Filipino lumpia is the best. Spring rolls is different ingredients

[@marjbrounty4499]

My husband was in the Navy and stationed in Guam in the early 70s, and I was there with him. We had Lumpia and always talked about how good it was. We live in Green Bay, WI now and found your recipe. We had a hard time finding the wrappers, but did find them and made them. They were great! Brought back lots of memories.

[@GuamMamaCooks]

Hafa Adai Marj! You were on Guam during some great years....the lumpia wrappers are the best!

[@thebrain9384]

Oriental stores exist somewhere in every city. I'd like to assume that anyhow.

[@RichardOhKaNoi]

you are so right as to the different egg rolls and lumpia I myself will choose lumpia any day there is special lumpia, shanghai lumpia. and banana lumpia and quite a few others. I have lived in Guam for many years and also in the Philippines so I have eaten many lumpia and enjoyed them all

[@nononohellnowhatcomeonohno5099]

I'm Chinese American and I love egg rolls, partiicularly my moms egg roll, you are right each person is bias when it comes to food because we love foods that remind us of a memory . And I can tell you I too hate restaurant egg rolls ,there just not the same.

[@gothsauceproductions5243]

Mmmm, I have a big bag of these my grandma Calvo made for me for my birthday in my freezer. I love lumpias.

[@pamelaearn760]

These are delicious I bought your book and used your recipe many times but have in the last few years. But now I can’t find those wrappers in all of Northern California. BUMMER!!

[@GuamMamaCooks]

Pamela, thanks so much for stopping by to let me know!! I appreciate it, and I hope you can find wrappers soon!

[@doloresonofre2684]

Ahhhh they do have it in Northern California that's were I live in Vacaville CA. They sell it in the Asian stores. I buy mine at the County Market or Seafood City in Vallejo or Sacramento. Well there everywhere.

[@wilange]

Thank you..😊...same as my mom’s...but she also added some potatoes...I think she did that as a filler, too...still very good, too💕 keep safe and God bless!💗

[@GuamMamaCooks]

Wonderful!

[@GuamMamaCooks]

Thank you VivisMagicWand! I'm going to keep this in mind....I LOVE THE CHOPSTICKS idea and will keep an eye out for the rectangular mesh strainers!

[@stephbloomer]

Just a suggestion: My mom always made it with bean sprouts. You can find it canned in the asian goods section at the market. It helps to save on time if you substitute this for the cabbage and I like the taste. I like it both ways, but the bean sprouts is fast and easy.

[@mayleenroby1465]

Thank you!! And yes I live in Colorado and what you said regarding taste between a spring roll and a Lumpia your a 100% Right😊

[@nancyroberson2613]

Yes my mom uses bean sprout also with ground beef, cabbage and carrots. It’s delicious; so many variations. She never puts oyster sauce cause some people are allergic to it. But yes, onion and garlic powder plus soy sauce for seasoning as soy sauce is salty already.

[@dickcampbell5509]

It looks great and my wife and myself are going to make and try some very, very soon.

[@RonEntropy]

OMG! THAT CRUNCH SOUND WAS THE BOMB! Haven't had a true Lumpia in years. Egg rolls & Spring rolls dominate my part of the earth. I go to my local Filipino spots over here, and they too have submitted into a more Egg Roll or Spring Roll style due to "I guess" the Chinese/Vietnamese huge population over here. I think I'd just have to make it myself to get a TRUE Lumpia. It sucks living in a place where they think I'm either Mexican or Chinese. The Filipinos here can't even get it right!!! Haha!!!

[@nancyroberson2613]

A tip: place whole garlic w skin on in frying pan so it never burns and keeps crispy.

[@josephimbat9622]

Garlic lovers. Try putting a clove of garlic in hot oil. Delicious and keep lumpia crispy longer.

[@GuamMamaCooks]

Thank you for the tip!!!

[@rgruenhaus]

Very easy to follow! Now I need to learn how to make pancit! Yum!

[@PartyBoi2014]

My family is actually from Guam i was born here in the states tho n we make Lumpias all the time i love them n love helping mi grandmother make them we also always make Fina'Denne' to go with them, honestly the best sauce every but needless to say we make alot of Guam dishes throughout the year

[@vactlife]

Lumpia, fina’ denni’ and white rice-thee best combo😋😋😋

[@GuamMamaCooks]

Yes, yes, and yes!!!

[@alanah34]

I LOVE lumpia! I make mine with ground beef, carrots, green beans, onions and potatoes 😋

[@natureboy6410]

That's the way a 90 year old gaum lady taught me.

[@LadyRavenB]

I use the blue box wrappers with the towel set up, it works great. But every time I make lumpia I have to cook them right away.Everyone in my house loves them so much, I can never make enough to freeze for later.

[@GuamMamaCooks]

Funny! But yes, they are that delish.

[@susannalau3847]

The lumpia wrapper should originate from China. Thin and White in colour. Very light. The people from the Fukian province used it to wrap their spring rolls. Eaten plainly with sauce but not deep fried. It is everywhere sold in Taiwan especially in the wet market.

[@anah1973]

I add oyster sauce to my mixture and soy it's so good yours looks delicious!!

[@nelsonbrooks]

Your wrappers, are the real deal!

Awesome, thank you too Lara, for stopping by!

[@cbybailey]

My Step-Mom is from Guam and she introduced us to Finadeni and we loved it but cannot duplicate it. Would you share the recipe/proportions of ingredients?

[@GuamMamaCooks]

Hafa Adai Cby! An equal amount of Kikkoman soy sauce to distilled white vinegar, thinly sliced yellow onions, chopped green onions/scallions (optional), halved cherry or grape tomatoes (optional), and fresh Thai hot peppers (to taste....or red hot pepper flakes as a last resort). For example, a half cup of soy, a half cup of vinegar, one quarter of a small yellow onion, one green onion, five cherry tomatoes, and hot pepper to taste. This keeps well in a mason jar, covered, and in the fridge for several months....replenish onions and tomatoes as needed...at some point the tomatoes will dilute the soy/vinegar...then you will have to make a fresh batch. Hope this helps! Feel free to write again with any questions!

[@cbybailey]

thank you so much. I followed your technique for Lumpia last night and the family raved!

[@natureboy6410]

@@GuamMamaCooks what do you mean? :-) If its made old school style, like Becky Delp, a 90 year old guamanian woman, tought me, which has no green onions or tomatoes in it, onions or diced small and packed full, vinegar just to where you can taste it, use light soy or cut reg in half with water, a small handful of those tiny firecracker hot peppers from that pepper tree that grows well in guam smashed well, as long as you keep the soy/vinegar mix just above the onion, it will last just about forever. Its a fermented food. I've got a batch that I started over ten years ago and it's still going strong. :-) Becky is gone now, :-( , but she gave me alot of love, a big bag of those guam peppers, and she tought me how to cook a lot of meals the way that she used to cook in guam. Now all her sons and a few of her grandchildren and great grandchildren are always asking me to fix something for them because they didn't bother to learn when she was around. I don't mind. I've always believed in paying it forward. :-)

Hi Robert, I've never counted, sorry! It's enough for a small barbecue :-). As for cost per each, not sure either....but folks used to sell them at 2 or 3 for a dollar.

[@DHodges187]

Hmmm fantastic.

[@Deborah412]

I’ve only seen lumpia made with raw pork filling then fried,..does it HAVE to be cooked first before filling??

[@GuamMamaCooks]

I’ve always used cooked meat/pork for this style that uses veggies so I can’t vouch for how it will turn out using raw pork. I’ve made the Shanghai style ones with just ground raw pork…and it’s great!

[@GuamMamaCooks]

Used to be vegetable oil, but I’ve switched to local farm lard for frying lumpia.

[@Cornaynay]

Terina Aroni the recipe was never written down. I watched the video a few times and wrote it all out and did it my own way. Turned out amazing and now I'm a hit when it comes to lumpia.

[@terinaaroni65]

Oil is really high be careful so it doesnt bubble over....not to over flow that oil will start a fire once it hits the burner.

When you take them out of the freezer, do you have to let them get thawed first?
