Japanese tamagoyaki: traditional omelette recipe
Traditional Japanese tamagoyaki omelette with characteristic layered texture and slightly sweet taste - perfect breakfast or sushi accompaniment.
| Eggs | 4 pc. |
| mayonnaise | 4 tbsp |
| dried beef | 100 g |
| tomato | 1 pc. |
| Herbs | 1 bunch |
| Vegetable oil | 2 tbsp |
Шаг 1
Beat the eggs with a whisk. Add mayonnaise (1 tbsp per egg). No need to add salt — the mayo is salty enough. Whisk again until smooth.
Шаг 2
It’s best to do the next step in advance to serve the dish hot. Slice the tomatoes and arrange them on a plate with the meat and herbs.
Шаг 3
Now the fun begins. Place the pan over low heat and heat it with a little vegetable oil. Just a little — excess oil will spoil the taste. Pour in a bit of the liquid omelet, as if making a crepe, and quickly spread it around. The thinner the crepe, the better.
Шаг 4
Lightly fry on one side for 20–30 seconds. Start rolling the crepe into a roll, gently pressing with a spatula. Slide the roll to the edge, pour more liquid omelet, letting it seep under the roll, then roll again. Repeat until all the omelet is used.
Шаг 5
When the omelet bowl is empty, transfer the roll to a plate with tomatoes and meat, slice, and serve.
