Filling
  1. Heat a tablespoon of oil in a small saute pan over low heat, add the onion + salt and sweat until soft and starts to brown while stirring once in a while. About 5 minutes
  2. While you are sauteing the onions, put all the ingredients in a mixing bowl, add the onions when ready. Using your clean hands, gently incorporate all the ingredients. Avoid over mixing, the meat should be visible not mushed. Cover the bowl and let it rest in the fridge for at least 1 hour or overnight.

Dipping sauce
  1. Combine all the ingredients in a lidded jar and shake to incorporate everything. Can be made in advance and shake before serving. Adjust seasoning according to your likeness
Assembly
  1. Preheat the oven to 425°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Separate all the wrapper and cover with a damp paper towel.
  2. Fold the wrapper on top of the meat, roll once as you gently press the wrapper to tighten the meat. Give another roll then fold both sides and continue rolling to finish forming a nicely tight cylinder. Continue rolling with the rest of the meat mixture as you arranged it into the lined baking sheet leaving a space in between. Keep it covered with a damp paper towel while working the rest. Check the pictures for reference.
  3. Coat the lumpia with a thin brush of oil and bake for 10 minutes, turn the lumpia upside down and continue baking for another 10 minutes or until a little brown on top and cook inside.
  4. Arrange in a serving platter and serve with balsamic vinegar dipping sauce or a choice of your own. Enjoy!

Notes

If you're going to cook it all, arrange the lumpia in two baking sheets and set the rack on the upper second shelf and one on the lower second shelf. Rotate the baking sheets halfway through cooking. If not,  freeze and bake frozen adding extra minutes for baking.
