Sweet Peanut Flavored Sauce with Cornstarch for Fresh Lumpia

This Lumpia Sauce is for any Lumpia that is not fried, be it wrapped or unwrapped, like Lumpiang Hubad. A sweet and thick sauce, it is served over Lumpia and then topped with ground peanuts.

Also, fresh minced garlic is standard, which gives the sauce a distinct spice to complement its sweetness.

Some people add the ground peanuts into the sauce instead of topping them. My mom experimented adding a little peanut butter for a more peanut taste and it was wonderful. We got the idea from the Vietnamese's Fresh Spring Roll.

COOK'S TIPS
Adding a tablespoon of peanut butter on the sauce gives a more peanut-flavored sauce and saves you on adding a lot of ground peanuts.
Not all people like the fresh garlic taste (and garlic breath) so it is a good idea to serve the minced garlic on the side instead of adding in the sauce.
Fresh Garlic tends to go rancid, so only add them to the sauce that will be served within the day.
