Best Scallion Egg Wrap Recipes
SCALLION EGG WRAP
This is a common Chinese-American adaptation of a breakfast dish served throughout northern China and Taiwan. Street vendors start peddling jian bing as the sun rises, spreading a wheat flour and mung bean batter on a large griddle until thin, then cracking an egg or two on top. They scatter on scallions, cilantro and pickled mustard greens, and scramble and spread the mix before squirting on hoisin sauce and chile paste. Sometimes, they add sliced lettuce or wonton crisps for crunch. Making jian bing is a specialized skill and not easily recreated, but this approximation delivers the pleasure and convenience of an omelet cooked onto a thin pancake, the pancake here being store-bought flour tortillas. When warmed, they share the comforting chewiness of the original. This version uses a few essential condiments: Pickled mustard greens, hoisin and chile paste can be found in Chinese or Asian markets or online. But you can, of course, leave them out. In fact, kids often prefer just the egg and tortilla.

Steps:
- Beat the eggs and 1/4 teaspoon salt with a fork until almost blended with some yellow streaks remaining.
- Heat a small nonstick skillet over medium heat. Put the tortilla in it and turn until warm and pliable, about 1 minute. Transfer to a plate.
- Raise the heat to medium-high. Add the oil to the skillet, then the scallion and 1/8 teaspoon salt. Cook, stirring, until just bright green and tender, about 30 seconds. Add the eggs, vigorously stir with a silicone spatula to scramble lightly, then quickly spread in an even layer. Scatter on the cilantro and pickled greens, if using, then immediately press the warmed tortilla on top and let cook until the egg just sets and sticks to the tortilla, about 30 seconds. Flip onto a plate, egg facing up.
- If using, drizzle the hoisin sauce and chile paste over the egg and sprinkle with sesame seeds. Fold in quarters and serve immediately or wrap in foil to eat out of hand.

Steps:
- Place tortilla in medium size skillet.
- Tear American cheese slice into several pieces; distribute pieces over tortilla.
- Scatter sliced scallions, bacon bits and shredded cheddar cheese over tortilla.
- Place the skillet over medium-low to low heat; cover loosely with foil while preparing eggs.
- Immediately melt butter in small nonstick skillet over medium heat.
- Break eggs into a small bowl or cup; add salt and pepper if desired; whisk to combine.
- Pour eggs into skillet with melted butter; cook, stirring occasionally from bottom.
- *Note: The goal for the eggs is to be cooked, but not overcooked, and scrambled but gathered together toward the end to form a cohesive "log" (see photo.) Turn the log over once in skillet to assure all of the egg is cooked.
- Remove foil from skillet with prepared tortilla; place cooked egg "log" in center of tortilla; fold tortilla over egg, burrito style (see photos.)
