Crispy Garlic Lumpia Chips (Printable View)

Thin, crunchy chips infused with garlic and herbs, perfect for savory snacking or dipping.

# What You'll Need:

→ Lumpia Wrapper

01 - 10 lumpia (spring roll) wrappers

→ Garlic & Oil

02 - 3 tablespoons neutral oil (canola or vegetable)
03 - 4 large garlic cloves, minced
04 - 1/2 teaspoon sea salt
05 - 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper

→ Garnish (optional)

06 - 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley or chives

# How to Make It:

01 - Preheat the air fryer to 350°F (180°C) for 3 minutes.
02 - Stack the lumpia wrappers and slice into thin strips or triangles approximately 1.2 inches (3 cm) wide.
03 - In a small saucepan, gently heat oil over low heat. Add minced garlic and sauté until golden and fragrant, about 2 minutes. Remove from heat and cool slightly.
04 - Place the sliced wrappers in a large bowl. Drizzle the garlic-infused oil over them, season with salt and black pepper, and toss gently to coat evenly.
05 - Arrange coated wrappers in a single layer in the air fryer basket. Fry in batches if necessary to avoid overcrowding.
06 - Air-fry for 5 to 7 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through, until golden brown and crispy.
07 - Remove chips and let them cool on a wire rack. Repeat the frying process with remaining wrappers.
08 - Optionally garnish with chopped parsley or chives. Serve immediately or store in an airtight container.

# Expert Tips:

01 -
  • It takes barely twenty minutes from craving to crunching, with almost no cleanup.
  • The garlic oil soaks into every fold of the wrapper, making each bite ridiculously fragrant and savory.
  • You can customize the seasoning however you like, from chili heat to smoky paprika, and it always turns out perfect.
02 -
  • If you pile the wrappers too high in the basket, they won't crisp evenly, so always fry in small batches even if it takes an extra round.
  • Let the garlic oil cool slightly before tossing; if it's too hot, it can make the wrappers soggy instead of crispy.
03 -
  • Use a wire rack to cool the chips instead of paper towels, which can trap steam and make them lose their crunch.
  • If your wrappers are sticking together, separate them gently before slicing and work quickly so they don't dry out.
