This savory recipe was inspired by a popular Chinese street food, Jian Bing – named as “one of China’s most popular street breakfasts.” Simple ingredients such as a flour crepe, egg and sauce of your choice come together perfectly, and there are plenty of variations depending on taste and preference in different regions. We’ve used a flour tortilla as the crepe – but can promise you it’s not skimping on the flavor. We also recommend eating right away to not lose its crispiness. Enjoy!
