Egg Wraps with Smoked Salmon Recipe

Introduction

Egg wraps with smoked salmon are a quick and elegant dish perfect for breakfast or a light lunch. These delicate wraps combine fluffy eggs, creamy cheese, and savory smoked salmon with a spicy kick and fresh arugula for a flavorful, satisfying bite.

The image features a bright yellow omelette with a smooth texture, laid flat on a round board covered with translucent paper. On one half of the omelette, there are layers of soft white cream cheese, thin slices of orange smoked salmon, and fresh green arugula leaves sprinkled with black and white seeds for texture. To the right, a black plate (changed to white plate as per instructions) holds a neatly folded omelette filled with similar layers of smoked salmon and arugula, accompanied by a small white bowl of bright red sauce. At the top, a black bowl contains whole eggs. The entire setup is on a white marbled surface with a striped black and white cloth partially visible. photo taken with an iphone --ar 4:5 --v 7

Ingredients

  • 4 organic eggs
  • 1/4 teaspoon paprika
  • 1/8 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 4 tablespoons olive oil
  • 4 tablespoons cream cheese
  • 4 ounces smoked salmon
  • Jalapeño pepper, to taste
  • 1 tablespoon furikake
  • Arugula, to taste

Instructions

  1. Step 1: Crack the eggs into a bowl and whisk thoroughly until the yolks and whites are well combined. Season with paprika, ground black pepper, and salt to taste.
  2. Step 2: Heat a nonstick skillet over medium heat and add olive oil or coat the pan with cooking spray. Pour a quarter of the whisked eggs into the skillet, spreading them to form a thin layer. Cook until the edges lift and the bottom is set.
  3. Step 3: Carefully flip the egg wrap to cook the other side until golden and fully cooked. Repeat this process to make four thin, flexible egg wraps.
  4. Step 4: Spread 1 tablespoon of cream cheese onto the center of each egg wrap. Top with 1 ounce of smoked salmon and add jalapeño slices if you like some heat.
  5. Step 5: Sprinkle furikake over the fillings and add arugula to your preference.
  6. Step 6: Fold both sides of the egg wrap toward the center to enclose the filling.
  7. Step 7: Repeat for the remaining wraps and serve immediately. Optional: accompany with your favorite hot sauce.

Tips & Variations

  • For a milder flavor, omit the jalapeño or substitute with thinly sliced cucumber.
  • Use whipped cream cheese for easier spreading and a lighter texture.
  • Try adding fresh dill or chives for extra herbaceous notes.
  • For a dairy-free version, replace cream cheese with mashed avocado.

Storage

These egg wraps are best enjoyed fresh but can be refrigerated in an airtight container for up to 24 hours. To reheat, warm gently in a skillet over low heat or enjoy cold. Avoid microwaving to prevent sogginess.

How to Serve

A thin, bright yellow omelette lays open on a round wooden board covered with translucent paper, showing a smooth but slightly textured surface. On one side of the omelette, there is a layer of soft white cream cheese topped with thin slices of orange smoked salmon. Fresh green arugula leaves are scattered over the salmon with a light sprinkle of black and white sesame seeds and small chili flakes. To the right, on a white plate, a folded omelette wraps the same filling, with more arugula beside it. A small white bowl of bright red sauce sits next to the folded omelette. In the top right corner, a black bowl holds several brown eggs. The entire scene is set on a white marbled surface with a folded striped cloth partially visible at the bottom. photo taken with an iphone --ar 4:5 --v 7

FAQs

Can I make these egg wraps ahead of time?

You can prepare the egg wraps and fillings separately, then assemble just before serving to maintain freshness and texture.

What can I use instead of furikake?

If you don’t have furikake, toasted sesame seeds or a light sprinkle of seaweed flakes work well as a substitute.

  • 4 Organic Eggs
  • 1/4 teaspoon Paprika
  • 1/8 teaspoon Ground Black Pepper
  • 4 tablespoons Olive Oil

Filling

  • 4 tablespoons Cream Cheese
  • 4 ounces Smoked Salmon
  • Jalapeño Pepper, to taste (1-2 slices per wrap)
  • 1 tablespoon Furikake
  • Arugula, to taste

Instructions

  1. Prepare the eggs: Crack the 4 organic eggs into a bowl and whisk thoroughly until yolks and whites are fully combined. Add 1/4 teaspoon paprika, 1/8 teaspoon ground black pepper, and salt to taste. Mix well to incorporate the seasoning evenly.
  2. Cook the egg wraps: Heat a nonstick skillet over medium heat and add 4 tablespoons olive oil or spray with cooking spray to coat the pan. Pour one-quarter of the whisked egg mixture into the pan, allowing it to spread into a thin layer. Cook until the edges lift easily and the bottom is set and slightly golden.
  3. Flip the wraps: Carefully flip the egg wrap to cook the other side until golden and fully cooked. Remove and place on a flat surface. Repeat this process for the remaining egg batter to make four thin, flexible egg wraps in total.
  4. Add the filling: Spread 1 tablespoon of cream cheese evenly onto the center of each egg wrap. Top with 1 ounce of smoked salmon. Add jalapeño slices according to your heat preference.
  5. Season and garnish: Sprinkle 1 tablespoon of furikake over the filling and add a handful of fresh arugula on top for a peppery bite and fresh texture.

  7. Serve: Prepare all wraps similarly. Serve immediately with your favorite hot sauce for an extra kick if desired.

Notes

  • Use a nonstick skillet to prevent the egg wraps from sticking and tearing.
  • Adjust the amount of jalapeño according to your spice tolerance.
  • Furikake can be substituted with sesame seeds and seaweed flakes if unavailable.
  • For a lighter option, use low-fat cream cheese.
  • Serve immediately for best texture and taste as the wraps can soften if stored for too long.
