Spring roll and momos are so much fun whether you are vegan or non-vegetarian. I love finger food. Serve it with your favorite sauce. Be it sweet chilli or sriracha. Filipinos and Indonesians call them lumpia. Other names include loempia in Netherlands and Belgium, chunkun in Mexicali. Rollos primavera in Mexico and chiko roll in Australia was also inspired by them. Although, homemade lumpia are great, sometimes having frozen ones are good too.
