1 lb ground pork,browned and fat draine,
1/2 lb shrimp,shelled
3 firm tofu,fried and cut into cubes
1 lg onion,sliced
3 cloves garlic,crushed
1 lb turnips,cut into strips

2 tsp. fish sauce (patis),optional

- Continue to stir and cook for 5 more minutes. Drain and save the broth for the dipping sauce.
- Allow the mixture to cool. Separate the lumpia wrappers carefully. Line one end of the wrapper with a small piece of lettuce so that the lettuce pokes out a little bit - this is the top of the roll. Use 2 tbsp. of the mixture for filling (this will be a fatter roll than for fried lumpia) on top of the lettuce and roll the wrapper.
