Ingredients
  

Wrappers (Optional)
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • ¼ tsp salt
  • 1 cup water
Filling
  • 1 cup cream cheese
  • 2 cups pineapple diced
  • cup sugar
  • 2 tbsp powdered sugar (for dusting at end)

Method
 

Wrappers (Optional)
  1. Mix flour, water, and salt. Knead and rest in fridge for 20 minutes. Roll into a snake. Cut dough into 10 equal sections.
  2. Roll out each section into a 3-4 inch diameter disc. Lightly brush with oil and dust with flour. Stack the discs on top of each other in 2 piles of 5.
  3. Heat a skillet on medium heat. Cook each stack of wrappers, one minute on the bottom, flip stack and cook top for 1 minute. They shouldn't get crispy at all.
The Filling
  1. Take a spoon of cream cheese and spread it across the wrapper.
  2. Sprinkle pineapple on top of cream cheese. Sprinkle sugar to taste as well.
  3. Fold in the top and bottom of wrapper. Roll from one side to the other, like a sleeping bag. Seal with water along the edge. Repeat with all the wrappers.
  4. Cover pongu lumpia and put in the freezer for at least 3 hours.
  5. Take them out and pan fry the lumpia, starting fold side down, for about 3 minutes, then turn and fry for 3 minutes or until golden brown. Repeat until all lumpia are done.
  6. Dust the top with powdered sugar and enjoy!
