How to Make Unwrapped Lumpia

Heat the pan well. Add high heat tolerant oil such as avocado oil. Mix the soy sauce, oyster sauce, and brown sugar together and set aside. Add the ground pork. Let it sear. Use your spatula to chop the ground pork so it is in very tiny morsels and very ground. Make space in the pan. Then, add onions, minced garlic, and minced ginger. Sauté for few minutes then mix well. Once the pork is one minute from being totally cooked, add the water chestnuts and add the carrots. Mix well. Then add the liquid sauce. Toss and incorporate well. One minute. Dust with salt and pepper to taste. Add the cabbage and in thirty seconds turn off the heat of the stove. Top with sliced scallions.
