Would you have time to post the Sunset Asian "Lumpia" recipe you mentioned in an earlier post? I would appreciate it very much, and thanks!

My dil made some wonderful Lumpia, I fell in love with them. But I am a "tweakie" and will want to try a couple more recipes, just for fun.

 
Hi Karen, here it is. However, I just noticed as I started typing it up>>>

that this recipe is not the traditional Lumpia as I know it from the Phillippines. This is a an eat out of hand type wrap and not deep fried. I'm posting it anyway. The filling and dipping sauce look good.

Lumpia Filling:
Crumble ground pork into a wide frying pan over medium heat. Add onion and garlic and cook, stirring, until onion is soft and meat is lightly browned.

Before using, drain; add juices to Dipping Sauce, then stir 1/4 cup sauce into filling.

Assembling:
For each lumpia, spread a wrapper with about 1 teaspoon of the sauce. Set a lettuce leaf on wrapper to extend from center over top edge. Spoon about 2 tablespoons of the filling on lettuce; top with some of the peanuts, coriander and onions. Fold lower half of wrapper over filling, then overlap sides to enclose. Eat out of hand.
