Spiced Egg Roll (Gluten-Free)
Spiced scrambled egg wrapped in a gluten-free rice-flour flatbread, seasoned with cumin, turmeric, and green chile, folded with red onion, cilantro, and a squeeze of lime. This handheld version of the classic Indian street-food egg roll uses a soft gluten-free crepe in place of wheat paratha for a quick, portable lunch.

Instructions
1
Prep
Whisk the rice flour, tapioca starch, and water in a small bowl until smooth and pourable, then let sit uncovered 10 minutes.
2
Heat
Pour half the flatbread batter into a nonstick skillet with 1 tsp oil over medium heat, tilting to spread thin, and cook 2 minutes until the underside is golden and lacy.
3
Beat
Whisk the eggs with onion, cilantro, cumin, turmeric, chili powder, finely chopped green chili, salt, and black pepper until combined.
4
Heat
Add the remaining 1 tsp oil to the skillet over medium-low heat, pour in the egg mixture, and cook 2 to 3 minutes, stirring gently, until just set and no longer glossy.
5
Build
Lay the flatbread flat, spoon the scrambled egg down the center, and scatter over extra cilantro.
6
Wrap
Fold the flatbread over the filling and roll it tightly into a cylinder, tucking ends to enclose the egg.
7
Plate
Cut the roll in half on a diagonal and plate with the lime wedge alongside for squeezing over just before eating.
