Dan Bing (Taiwanese Egg Crepe)

Dan bing is a traditional Taiwanese breakfast food that is usually sold by street vendors every morning. Since everyone is in a rush to get to work (sometimes waiting with their scooters running), the vendors have to be able to make every order to go super fast, and once you get the hang of it, you can make it pretty quickly at home, too! Basically, a dan bing is a thin crepe with an egg on top. There's multiple variations; my favorite is just to mix a little sesame oil and a lot of chopped scallions into the egg. Feel free to try different fillings in the egg mixture (e.g. chopped ham, crumbled bacon, corn) or on top of the cooked egg before rolling it up (e.g. shredded cheese, rou song [pork floss], cilantro), but I wouldn't put too much in because you want to make sure you can still roll it up easily. Soy paste and sweet chili sauce are the more traditional sauces, but you can also try oyster sauce, hoisin sauce, or even ketchup. It is usually sliced into bite-sized pieces (similar to a makil roll) if you're going to eat it sitting down, but you can eat this on the go by spreading the sauce on the egg before you roll it up and eating it like a wrap or burrito.
