The non-Mexican ways to use tortillas in cooking II: Chinese crepe (煎饼)

So this is one of the most popular street-vendor breakfast in many places in China,
I have craved for it for years since I came to the U.S.
Now there is an easy make to make it.







Ingrediants:
  • Tortillas
  • Eggs
  • chopped cilantro
  • chopped green onion
  • hoisin sauce
  • Chinese fried dough
Procedure:
  • heat up a cooking pan over medium heat, with one table spoon of oil;
  • heat up one side of tortillas for 20 seconds, then flip over;
  • crack an egg on the tortillas, use a spatula to break the egg and spread it on the tortillas, doesn't have to be perfect;
  • when the egg is half cooked, sprinkle some chopped cilantro and green onion;
  • flip the tortillas carefully, so the egg side is now facing down;
  • brush hoisin sauce on the top side, and wait till the egg is fully cooked;
  • put a piece of fried dough on the top (the hoisin sauce side), then roll and fold the tortillas around the fried dough. 
It is ready to eat in 3 minutes.
