  1. Step 1:

    Step 1

    How do you make skillet eggs in lavash with cheese? A delicious breakfast couldn't be easier. Start by gathering your ingredients. It's best to prep the filling first. Use large eggs; if yours are on the small side, go with 5 or 6.

  2. Step 2:

    Step 2

    Grate the cheese on the large holes of a box grater.

  3. Step 3:

    Step 3

    Wash, dry, and finely chop the herbs. I'm using parsley, a bit of dill, and a couple of green onion stalks. Feel free to add your favorites — cilantro, spinach, young ramps, and so on.

  4. Step 4:

    Step 4

    Now prep the lavash base. Use thicker, sturdier lavash so it doesn't fall apart under the wet eggs. A wheat wrap works too. Cut 2 circles from the lavash.

  5. Step 5:

    Step 5

    Make the first circle the diameter of your skillet and the second one a little larger. Cut the lavash last, since it dries out and cracks quickly, especially at the edges.

  6. Step 6:

    Step 6

    Grease the bottom and sides of the skillet with vegetable oil. Lay in the larger lavash circle so it forms a raised edge up the sides.

  7. Step 7:

    Step 7

    Carefully crack the eggs onto the lavash one at a time, keeping the yolks intact.

  8. Step 8:

    Step 8

    Season the eggs with salt and pepper, then scatter most of the grated cheese over the top.

  9. Step 9:

    Step 9

    Sprinkle most of the chopped herbs over the eggs, saving a little to garnish the finished dish.

  10. Step 10:

    Step 10

    Lay the second lavash circle on top, tucking it down with the edges of the bottom sheet.

  11. Step 11:

    Step 11

    Set the skillet over medium heat and cook, covered, for about 5 minutes. The bottom lavash should turn golden, the eggs should set, and the cheese should melt.

  12. Step 12:

    Step 12

    Gently flip the whole thing over. Sprinkle the browned top with the remaining cheese.

  13. Step 13:

    Step 13

    Cover the skillet again, turn off the heat, and leave it for 5 minutes so the cheese melts.

  14. Step 14:

    Step 14

    Slide the finished lavash eggs onto a plate, sprinkle with the reserved herbs, cut into wedges, and serve right away. Enjoy!

  • Everyone's tolerance for salt, sweetness, bitterness, tang, and heat is different, so season to your own taste. If you're using a spice for the first time, remember that some are easy to overdo (chili pepper especially).
  • How do you pick good lavash? First, check the date on the package and skip anything past its prime. Fresh lavash should smell pleasant — look it over closely for spots or any signs of mold.
