It’s a wrap griddled in sausage fat until the outside is crispy and warm. Need we say more?

Recipe information

  • Yield

    4 servings

Ingredients

8 large eggs
1 cup plain whole-milk Greek yogurt
2 Tbsp. fresh lemon juice
1 garlic clove, finely grated
Kosher salt
2 Tbsp. extra-virgin olive oil
1 lb. merguez sausage, casings removed
4 lavash or large flour tortillas
1/2 small red onion, halved, thinly sliced
4 dill pickles, sliced crosswise 1/4" thick
3 cups mint leaves

Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Bring a medium pot of water to a boil. Carefully slip in eggs and cook 8 minutes. Transfer to a bowl of ice water with a slotted spoon; let cool. Peel eggs, then slice each crosswise into 5 pieces.

    Step 2

    Meanwhile, mix yogurt, lemon juice, and garlic in a small bowl; season yogurt sauce with salt.

    Step 3

    Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high. Add sausage and press down on it with a wooden spoon or heatproof rubber spatula to flatten; cook, undisturbed, until browned underneath, about 4 minutes. Turn sausage over; break into smaller pieces with spoon. Cook until cooked through and crisp, about 3 minutes. Transfer sausage along with drippings to a medium bowl. Reserve skillet.

    Step 4

    Lay out lavash on a work surface. Spread 1/4 cup yogurt sauce over each, leaving a 1" border. Top with sausage, dividing evenly. Top each with 10 egg slices in a single layer, then with red onion, pickles, and mint. Fold in 2 sides of lavash and, starting at an unfolded edge, roll up tightly.

    Step 5

    Set reserved skillet over medium heat and cook 2 wraps, undisturbed, until golden brown and starting to crisp underneath, about 2 minutes. Turn over and cook until golden brown and starting to crisp on the other side. Transfer to a cutting board. Repeat with remaining wraps. Cut wraps in half crosswise.
