Method

  1. 1.

    Place the rice paper on a plate.

    If the rice paper is a bit stiff, a tiny splash of water can help it soften.

  2. 2.

    Drizzle the chilli oil evenly over the rice paper.

  3. 3.

    Top with a cheese slice and crack an egg onto the centre.

  4. 4.

    Fold the rice paper over the filling to enclose it, creating a parcel.

  5. 5.

    Fry in a pan over medium heat until the rice paper is golden brown and crispy, and the egg is cooked to your liking.

    Keep an eye on it so the cheese doesn't burn before the egg sets!
