Prepare the lumpia wrapper and place it on a flat surface with one corner facing you. Arrange about 2 tbsp of the mixture on the wrapper slightly off center but near to you.
Fold the left and right corner to the center then fold the corner closest to you. Roll it away from you tightly. Brush lightly beaten egg on the tip of the remaining corner to seal it. Repeat the same procedure on the remaining ingredients. Set aside.
In a bowl, combine the cornflour, water, Chinese Five Spice powder and paprika. Mix well until well blended. The mixture should be thin.
