    Travelling has a lot of perks. You’ll be able to see for yourself special landmarks and get to taste authentic foods from that certain place. It is a fun, exciting, and unique experience that hopefully, everyone gets to experience. For a place like Cebu, food tasting is a real privilege. Thanks to their numerous delicacies, a lot of tourists enjoy their travels more. Ngohiong is one of those tourist favorites. What do they do if they suddenly crave for it? They make them at home. This recipe tastes like the authentic one. Be prepared to have a taste of the real deal.

    However, what actually is ngohiong? To make it simple, it is very similar to our very own lumpiang shanghai. But here’s the take, its stuffings are completely different. In this variation, we get more than just minced pork and carrots. Instead, we will also enjoy the goodness of shrimp, ubod, and singkamas all at the same time. A completely new twist to our usual shanghai.

    Tips How to Cook Ngohiong

    • If five-spice powder is unavailable in your local supermarket, you can make your own with the following ingredients: Szechuan pepper, star anise, coriander, cloves, cinnamon, salt, and white pepper.
    • You can prepare it in advance before getting it cooked. Store your ready-to-cook ngohiong inside the freezer, then take it out when needed.
    • Get the largest possible size of lumpia wrapper.
    • To give the dish a more Chinese taste, use bean curd wrapper or tau-pe. However, if you cannot find that in store, use the regular spring roll wrapper and make the cornstarch batter (listed in the ingredients below).
    • To make the dipping sauce, combine spicy vinegar and sweet and chili sauce.

    Surprise your family with something new. Ngohiong is so delicious that they will surely love it. They may even realize that it is their new favorite kind of lumpia.
