Shrimp and pork lumpia, a beloved Filipino appetizer, showcases the delightful combination of savory shrimp and seasoned ground pork encased in thin spring roll wrappers. In this version, I wrap seasoned ground pork around the large shrimp, then wrap it in the spring roll wrappers. This retains the shape of the shrimp after it is fried.
