Lay a spring roll wrapper on a clean surface with one corner pointing towards you (diamond shape). Place about 2 tablespoons of the filling near the corner closest to you. Fold the corner over the filling, tuck, and roll tightly halfway. Fold the left and right corners inwards to create an envelope shape, then continue rolling until sealed. Use a little water to seal the tip if needed. Repeat for the remaining filling and wrappers.

Heat about 2 inches of oil in a deep frying pan over medium heat. Carefully add the lumpia in batches (avoid overcrowding) and fry until golden brown and crispy, about 4-5 minutes. Use a slotted spoon to remove the lumpia from the oil and place on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
