  • Total Time: 15 minutes
  • Yield: 2 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale

Egg Mixture

  • 4 large eggs
  • 2 tablespoons milk or cream
  • Salt, to taste
  • Black pepper, to taste

Fillings

  • 1/2 cup shredded cheese (cheddar, mozzarella, or preferred cheese)
  • 1/2 cup fresh veggies (bell peppers, spinach, tomatoes, or your choice)
  • 1/4 cup cooked meat (ham, bacon, or sausage bits) – optional

Cooking Fat

  • 1 tablespoon olive oil or butter

Instructions

  1. Whisk Your Eggs: Crack your eggs into a bowl, add a splash of milk or cream, then season with salt and pepper. Whisk vigorously until the mixture is smooth and slightly frothy to ensure a fluffy outcome.
  2. Prepare Your Fillings: While the eggs rest, chop and lightly sauté any vegetables or cooked meats you’d like to add. Grate or slice the cheese you’ll be using, keeping everything ready to assemble.
  3. Cook the Egg Base: Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add a bit of butter or olive oil. Pour in the egg mixture, swirling the pan to spread the eggs evenly into a thin, pancake-like layer.
  4. Add Fillings: Once the eggs start to set but are still slightly soft on top, sprinkle your prepared fillings evenly across the surface. Let everything warm and the cheese melt gently.
  5. Roll It Up: Using a spatula, carefully lift one edge of the egg and roll it up over the fillings, creating a tight roll. Slide the roll onto a plate and let it cool for a minute to hold its shape.

Notes

  • Use a quality non-stick skillet to prevent sticking and ensure easy rolling.
  • Remove eggs from heat while still slightly soft for a tender roll.
  • Fresh veggies and cheese greatly enhance flavor.
  • Beat eggs well to produce fluffier, more pliable egg sheets.
  • Prep fillings ahead to shorten cooking time.
