Ingredients

  • 4 organic eggs
  • 1/4 teaspoon paprika
  • 1/8 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 4 tablespoons olive oil
  • 4 tablespoons cream cheese
  • 4 ounces smoked salmon
  • Jalapeño pepper, to taste
  • 1 tablespoon furikake
  • Arugula, to taste

Instructions

  1. Step 1: Crack the eggs into a bowl and whisk thoroughly until the yolks and whites are fully combined. Season the mixture with paprika, ground black pepper, and salt to taste.
  2. Step 2: Heat a nonstick skillet over medium heat and add olive oil or use cooking spray to coat the pan evenly. Pour a quarter of the egg mixture into the skillet, spreading it thinly to form a wrap. Cook until the edges lift and the bottom is set.
  3. Step 3: Carefully flip the egg wrap and cook the other side until both sides are golden and cooked through. Repeat with the remaining egg mixture to make four wraps.
  4. Step 4: Spread 1 tablespoon of cream cheese onto the center of each egg wrap. Top with 1 ounce of smoked salmon and add jalapeño slices to taste for a little heat.
  5. Step 5: Sprinkle each wrap with furikake and add arugula on top for freshness.
  6. Step 6: Fold both sides of the egg wrap toward the center to enclose the filling neatly.
  7. Step 7: Repeat the filling and folding process with the remaining wraps. Serve immediately with your favorite hot sauce if desired.

Tips & Variations

  • For a dairy-free option, substitute cream cheese with mashed avocado or hummus.
  • If you prefer milder flavors, omit jalapeño or replace it with thin slices of cucumber.
  • Use smoked trout or grilled shrimp as alternative fillings for a different twist.
  • Adding a squeeze of fresh lemon juice before folding enhances the smoky salmon flavor.

Storage

Store any leftover egg wraps in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. For best texture and flavor, consume them cold or gently warm in a skillet over low heat before serving. Avoid microwaving to prevent sogginess.

How to Serve

The image shows a bright yellow thin omelette laid flat on a white marbled surface, topped with a spread of creamy white cheese in a long strip near one side, followed by layers of light pink smoked salmon slices, green arugula leaves scattered on top, and a sprinkle of black and white sesame seeds along with some black pepper. To the right, a white plate holds the omelette folded into a neat triangle with more green arugula beside it and a small white bowl filled with bright red sauce. Above the omelette, there is a black bowl holding four brown eggs. A striped cloth napkin is placed under the edge of the white plate. Photo taken with an iphone --ar 4:5 --v 7

FAQs

Can I make these egg wraps ahead of time?

Yes, you can prepare the egg wraps and fillings separately and assemble just before serving to keep them fresh.

What can I use if I don’t have furikake?

If furikake is unavailable, a sprinkle of toasted sesame seeds or seaweed flakes works well as a flavorful substitute.

Egg Wraps

  • 4 Organic Eggs
  • 1/4 teaspoon Paprika
  • 1/8 teaspoon Ground Black Pepper
  • 4 tablespoon Olive Oil
  • Salt to taste

Filling

  • 4 tablespoon Cream Cheese
  • 4 ounce Smoked Salmon
  • Jalapeño Pepper to taste (sliced)
  • 1 tablespoon Furikake
  • Arugula to taste

Instructions

  1. Prepare Egg Mixture: Crack the 4 organic eggs into a bowl and whisk thoroughly until yolks and whites are evenly combined. Season the mixture with 1/4 teaspoon paprika, 1/8 teaspoon ground black pepper, and salt to taste, ensuring a well-flavored egg base.
  2. Cook Egg Wraps: Heat a nonstick skillet over medium heat and add 1 tablespoon of olive oil or use cooking spray to coat the pan evenly. Pour about a quarter of the whisked eggs into the skillet, spreading it thinly to form a crepe-like layer. Cook until the edges lift and the bottom is set and golden, then carefully flip to cook the other side until cooked through and lightly golden. Repeat this process for remaining egg mixture to yield four thin, flexible egg wraps.
  3. Assemble Wraps: Spread 1 tablespoon of cream cheese onto the center of each egg wrap evenly, creating a creamy base layer for the filling.
  4. Add Salmon and Jalapeño: Place 1 ounce of smoked salmon over the cream cheese on each wrap. Add 1-2 slices of jalapeño pepper per wrap according to your spice preference.
  5. Top with Furikake and Arugula: Sprinkle 1 tablespoon of furikake evenly over the salmon and add arugula leaves to taste for a fresh, peppery crunch.
  6. Fold Wraps: Bring both sides of each egg wrap toward the center to enclose the filling securely, creating a neat wrap for easy eating.
  7. Serve: Arrange all completed wraps on a plate. Serve immediately with your favorite hot sauce for added heat and flavor.

Notes

  • Use a nonstick skillet for easy flipping and cooking of thin egg wraps.
  • Adjust jalapeño quantity to your preferred spice level or omit if sensitive to heat.
