Weights are estimates. Together, the ingredients weigh about 305 g before cooking, which is about 305 g per serving.

Steps

  1. Slice the potato into very thin slices using a vegetable slicer or mandoline.

  2. Grease a frying pan with olive oil and arrange the potato slices in an even layer across the bottom.

  3. Fry until a golden crust forms on the bottom, then carefully flip the entire potato layer over.

  4. Add salt and paprika to the potatoes to taste.

  5. Crack the eggs onto the top of the potatoes and distribute them evenly across the surface using a fork.

  6. Once the eggs have set slightly, add a generous layer of cream cheese over the top.

  7. Sprinkle with chopped parsley and green onions if desired.

  8. Allow the cheese to melt, then fold one side over the other to create a closed, half-moon shaped flatbread.

  9. Slice and serve while the cheese is still hot and stretchy.

Notes

For best results, ensure the potato slices are paper-thin so they cook through and form a cohesive base. You can substitute the cream cheese with mozzarella if you prefer a more traditional 'cheese pull'.
