Step 1
Whisk flour with 0.5 cup water and a pinch of salt until smooth, no lumps.
Step 2
Heat 1 tbsp oil in a 10-inch skillet over medium-high until shimmering, ~60 seconds.
Step 3
Pour batter into the hot skillet, immediately tilt and swirl to spread thin across the base.
Step 4
Cook until edges lift easily and the surface looks mostly set, about 90 seconds. Don't flip.
Step 5
Push the pancake to one side, add 1 tbsp oil to the cleared space, then crack both eggs into it.
Step 6
Cook eggs until whites set but yolks still jiggle, 3–4 minutes. Scatter fried shallots over the whole pan.
Step 7
Slide the pancake and eggs onto a cutting board. Roll tightly into a log, starting from one edge.
Step 8
Cut the roll in half on the bias. Whisk soy sauce and vinegar together, drizzle over both pieces.
