Ingredients
- 4 thin crepes or tortillas
- 3 large eggs
- 4 oz grated cheese
- 1 tbsp olive oil or unsalted butter
- 1 small onion or 2 scallions, finely chopped
- 2 garlic cloves, minced
- 1/2 tsp ground cardamom
- 1/2 lemon, cut into wedges
- 1/4 cup fresh herbs, chopped
- Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
Steps
- Beat the eggs with the cardamom, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and black pepper until evenly combined but not frothy.
- Heat a wide nonstick skillet over medium-low heat and rub it with a little of the oil or butter.
- Pour a quarter of the beaten egg into the pan and immediately tilt it so the egg spreads into a thin, even film across the base.
- Lay a crepe or tortilla directly onto the wet egg and press it down firmly with a spatula for 20 seconds, so the two fuse as the egg sets.
- Scatter a quarter of the cheese, onion, and garlic over the bread side, then cook for 2 minutes, until the egg underneath is fully set and lightly golden.
- Flip the whole thing and cook for 1 minute more, just long enough to melt the cheese and crisp the bread without drying out the egg.
- Fold into quarters, slide out onto a plate, and repeat with the remaining ingredients.
- Serve hot, scattered with the fresh herbs, with lemon wedges alongside.
