Ingredients

1 servings
  • Egg1
  • Sugar1 tsp, optional
  • Salta pinch
Allergens
egg

Directions

15 min
  1. 1

    Beat 1 egg well, then add 1 tsp sugar and a pinch of salt. Mix everything together.

  2. 2

    Heat a 26-28 cm skillet over medium heat and lightly oil the surface.

  3. 3

    Pour all the egg mixture at once into the skillet, tilting the pan diagonally to spread the egg evenly.

  4. 4

    Once the egg is spread out, reduce heat to low. Turn off the heat and wait for the egg to dry naturally.

  5. 5

    Step away and check occasionally to make sure it doesn't burn.

  6. 6

    When the edges of the egg are firmly set, gently flip it by holding the edges with your hands, or skip flipping if the surface is dry enough.

  7. 7

    Roll the egg with your hands, transfer to a cutting board, and cut into strips - either as one long piece or split into two, whichever you prefer.

Tips

It's important to preheat the skillet properly at the start. After pouring in the egg, resist the urge to move it around. The key is to wait for it to dry naturally while you work on other tasks.
