Directions: 
  1. Preheat pan over medium heat.
  2. Blend together flour, water and milk in a mixing bowl until smooth. Add sesame oil, if desired.
  3. When several drops of water sprinkled on pan skitter and dissipate, use a folded paper towel to wipe a minimal amount of oil on the pan.
  4. Pour 13 cup of crepe batter into center of the pan and use a spoon to spread the batter evenly. Flip crepe once edges lift easily with a thin stainless steel turner.
  5. Once flipped, add a dab of black bean sauce and a dab of chili sauce, spreading evenly across crepe with a spoon.
  6. Take one beaten egg and pour over crepe, evenly distributing with a spoon. Sprinkle scallions and cilantro over top.
  7. After egg sets, flip crepe to brown other side. Once browned, flip again and top with 2 quarters of toast.
  8. Fold in both edges of the crepe, and then fold crepe completely in half. Serve immediately.
  9. Repeat 3 more times, or until batter is finished.
Tips: 
  • Use more or less sauce, depending on spicy or savory preference.
  • Toasted bread can be substituted with crackers or Melba Toast.
