Ingredients
Quantities are shown as originally provided.
- 8 eggs
- 4 garlic cloves, minced
- 2 shallots, diced
- 1 bag frozen peas and carrots, thawed
- 3 c. cooked lentils
- 1 8 oz. can tomato sauce
- 3 tbsp. ketchup
- 3-4 tbsp. oyster sauce
- 3-4 tsp. Thai light soy sauce
- 1/2 tsp. white pepper powder
- Handful of roughly chopped cilantro
Instructions
- 1
Crack two eggs into a bowl. Whisk them until frothy.
- 2
Add 1 tsp of cooking oil to a wok or large non-stick pan that can easily be picked up a swirled :).
- 3
Warm the pan to medium-high heat.
- 4
Once the pan is warm, add the eggs. Swirl the pan, so the eggs spread out into a thin, circular shape.
- 5
Feel free to push in the sides of the shape to make it more of a circle if needed. If it’s not perfect circle, no worries. The egg crepe police aren’t out today.
- 6
After one minute or so, when the crepe has set, flip it over to cook the other side until it has set as well. Slide it off onto a serving plate.
- 7
Do the same with the remaining eggs.
- 8
Place each crepe on a separate plate to ensure they don’t stick together.
- 9
Once the eggs are cooked, keep the pan on medium-high heat, add more oil if necessary, and then add in the shallots and garlic.
- 10
Cook until fragrant, then add the bag of peas and carrots, lentils, oyster sauce, light soy sauce, ketchup and tomato sauce.
- 11
Once the sauce had thickened, and the veggies are warmed up, usually after about 5 minutes, turn off the heat, and add in the white pepper powder.
- 12
Add about 1/2 c. or so of the lentil veggie mixture to the crepe, making a mound about 4-in. in diameter. Be careful because if you put too much it will be hard to fold up the crepe.
- 13
Fold up all the sides of the crepe over the mound.
- 14
Carefully flip it over. Sprinkle cilantro on top. Serve with jasmine rice.

Enjoy!
