Scrambled eggs, a little sausage, melted cheese and herbs rolled in a buttery flaky flatbread: roti, paratha, malawach or scallion pancake all work.

The real one
You need
- 2 frozen flaky flatbreads (roti paratha, malawach or scallion pancakes)
- 4 eggs
- 1/4 lb (115 g) Thai or breakfast sausage, casing removed
- 2 slices American cheese
- Handful of Thai basil or regular basil
- 1 scallion, sliced
- 1 tbsp mayonnaise
- Hot sauce
How to make it
- Cook the flatbreads one at a time in a dry pan over medium heat, 2 minutes a side, until puffed and golden. Keep warm.
- Crumble the sausage into the pan and cook until browned, 4 minutes.
- Beat the eggs with the scallion and a pinch of salt, pour over the sausage and stir until just set. Lay the cheese on top to melt.
- Spread mayo down the middle of each flatbread, add the eggs and basil, a shake of hot sauce, then roll tightly and cut in half.
Tips
- Frozen flatbreads from an Asian or Middle Eastern market are as good as most restaurants'.
- Grated tomato and zhug make it the Sephardi version.
