Method
Beat one of the eggs. In large nonstick skillet, heat 1 tsp of the oil over medium-high heat; pour beaten egg into pan, swirling to coat bottom. Cook until set, about 1 minute. Transfer to plate; roll up and set aside. Repeat with remaining eggs and oil to make four pancakes total. Thinly slice rolls crosswise.
Dressing: In large bowl, whisk together vegetable oil, lime juice, sesame oil, fish sauce, salt, sugar, shallot, Thai pepper and garlic; set aside.
Meanwhile, in small saucepan of boiling lightly salted water, cook green beans until tender-crisp, about 3 minutes. Drain and chill in cold water; drain and pat dry.
Add beans and cucumber to dressing; toss to coat. Add mixed greens, mint, basil and cilantro; toss to coat. Serve eggs on top or stirred into salad.
