Combine cornstarch, flour, and salt in a medium-sized bowl. Add eggs and water, mix well until smooth.

Heat a 6-inch skillet and butter very lightly. Spoon in a very thin layer of batter, just enough to cover the bottom of the pan. Cook on one side only until done. Turn onto waxed paper. Repeat until batter is used, stacking wrappers between squares of waxed paper. Set aside.

Yield: Wrappers for 6-8 servings.

In a skillet, brown pork. Add garlic, then onion and shrimp. Saute and season with salt and pepper. Add potatoes, garbanzos, and carrots. Cover and cook until tender. Stir in bean sprouts and cabbage. Add soy sauce and cornstarch- water mixture; mix well and cook for 5 minutes.

Cool filling mixture and spoon a tablespoon in lumpia wrapper. Repeat with remaining filling and wrappers. Serve with Fresh Lumpia Sauce or Garlic Sauce.
