Ingredients

  • ¾ cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 whole eggs
  • ¼ cup crispy fried shallots
  • 2 tbsp soy sauce
  • 1 tbsp white vinegar
  • 3 tbsp neutral oil

Instructions

  1. 1

    Whisk flour with 0.5 cup water and a pinch of salt until smooth, no lumps.

  2. 2

    Heat 1 tbsp oil in a 10-inch skillet over medium-high until shimmering, ~60 seconds.

  3. 3

    Pour batter into the hot skillet, immediately tilt and swirl to spread thin across the base.

  4. 4

    Cook until edges lift easily and the surface looks mostly set, about 90 seconds. Don't flip.

  5. 5

    Push the pancake to one side, add 1 tbsp oil to the cleared space, then crack both eggs into it.

  6. 6

    Cook eggs until whites set but yolks still jiggle, 3–4 minutes. Scatter fried shallots over the whole pan.

  7. 7

    Slide the pancake and eggs onto a cutting board. Roll tightly into a log, starting from one edge.

  8. 8

    Cut the roll in half on the bias. Whisk soy sauce and vinegar together, drizzle over both pieces.
