Rice Paper Egg Cheese Wrap (Printable)

A thin, crunchy wrap combining rice paper, egg, and melted cheese for a tasty breakfast bite.

# What You’ll Need:

→ Main

01 - 2 sheets rice paper, 8.7 inch diameter
02 - 2 large eggs
03 - ½ cup shredded cheese (cheddar, mozzarella, or blend), approximately 1.75 oz

→ Optional Add-ins

04 - 2 tablespoons chopped scallions
05 - ½ small bell pepper, finely diced
06 - Pinch of chili flakes or black pepper

→ For Cooking

07 - 1 tablespoon neutral oil (canola, sunflower)

# Directions:

01 - Prepare all ingredients and arrange them within easy reach, as cooking proceeds rapidly.
02 - Warm ½ tablespoon of oil in a nonstick skillet over medium heat.
03 - Place one rice paper sheet in the skillet and lightly brush or spray with water to soften; this takes about 20 to 30 seconds until pliable.
04 - Crack one egg onto the rice paper and gently spread it across the surface with a spatula.
05 - Sprinkle half of the shredded cheese and desired add-ins over the egg; season with salt, pepper, and optional chili flakes.
06 - Cook for 2 to 3 minutes until the egg is mostly set and the cheese begins to melt.
07 - Fold in the edges or roll the rice paper into a wrap or cigar shape, pressing gently to seal.
08 - Flip and cook for an additional 1 to 2 minutes until golden brown and crispy.
09 - Repeat the process with the second rice paper sheet and remaining ingredients.
10 - Serve hot, optionally sliced in half for easier handling.

# Expert Tips:

01 -
  • It transforms into something impossibly crispy in minutes, no dough or waiting required
  • The rice paper creates this delicate shatter crunch that you cannot get from regular tortillas
02 -
  • Do not rush the water softening step, the rice paper will crack when you try to fold it
  • Keep the heat at medium, high heat burns the rice paper before the egg cooks through
03 -
  • Let the wrap rest on a wire rack for one minute after cooking, this keeps it crispy instead of soggy
  • Use a spatula with a thin edge for easier flipping and folding without tearing
