Day 5# Fried spring roll

Fried Spring roll popular in indonesia as 'Lumpia goreng' is one of my favorite snack. 'Lumpia' are pastries of Chinese origin, similar to spring roll. The recipe of 'lumpia' brought by Chinese immigrants to southeast Asia and became popular when they are settled in Indonesia.

There are two kind of 'lumpia' in Indonesia : Lumpia basah and 'Lumpia' Semarang. 'Lumpia basah' (wet spring roll) means spring roll without frying. It is similar with vietnamese spring roll.
