- Salt & Pepper

Let’s Get Cooking!
Step 1
Crack the eggs into a bowl and beat lightly with salt and pepper. Seriously, don’t skip this part you want to combine the flavors right from the start. Then chop those colorful veggies finely. The prettier, the better!
Step 2
Now, it’s time to soften up those rice paper wrappers! Dip each wrapper in warm water for about 10 seconds until pliable. They should be soft but not mushy, so peek at them to see how they’re doing!
Step 3
Lay the softened wrapper on a clean surface. Spoon a portion of the egg mixture onto the lower third of the wrapper. Now, sprinkle some veggies over the eggs. Just a handful will do, don’t overstuff! You want to be able to roll them up without a mess, right?
Step 4
Now for the fun part! Fold in the sides of the wrapper over the filling, then roll it up snugly from the bottom. Imagine you’re tucking in a little burrito for bed. So cute!
Step 5
Next, heat some oil in a skillet over medium heat. Make sure to let it get nice and hot, this is key for getting that crispy exterior. Place your wraps seam-side down in the skillet and cook until golden brown, about 3-4 minutes per side. You’re looking for that irresistible, crunchy texture!
Step 6
Transfer to paper towels to drain off any excess oil, and serve them hot with your favorite dipping sauce. I love a bit of sweet chili sauce for that delightful contrast. Yum!

Storage and Reheating
You can store these wraps in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. Just a heads up, they’re best when eaten fresh, but reheating them in a skillet over medium heat for a couple of minutes will bring back that fabulous crunch!
As for freezing, absolutely! You can freeze the uncooked wraps. Just make sure to separate them with parchment paper so they don’t stick together. When you’re craving them, heat some oil in a skillet right from the freezer; they may take a little longer to cook through, but trust me, it’s worth it!
Suggested Serving
These wraps taste fantastic with sweet chili sauce, peanut sauce, or even a homemade soy garlic dipping sauce. You can serve them up as a fun build-your-own dinner or with a side of fresh salad to keep it light.
