Lumpiang Togue is a form of lumpia or spring roll. In English, it is known as lumpiang gulay. The difference between these is the use of mung bean sprouts and other vegetables instead of meat. This is a popular street food in the Philippines and is often combined with suka or vinegar dip. If you are in the country, you will probably see a kid with bilao on their head selling them during merienda (snack) time, usually about 3 (O’clock) in the afternoon. Dried shrimp is often used for this dish, but you can also use fresh shrimp instead. This dish is extremely healthy and addictive. This is especially true when you dip it into spicy vinegar and take the first bite of the roll. I’m sure you will not stop eating until you’ve consumed about 5 rolls! Are you craving for this? Make it today in the comfort of your home.
