tamagoyaki, a sweet Japanese rolled omelet
LpaisSundays, a gallery of food photography, Pinoy style, is hosted by SpiCes and Feisty Cook.
4 large eggs
4 tablespoons dashi stock
1 tablespoon sugar
1 teaspoon mirin
½ teaspoon soy sauce
salt, to taste
- Beat the eggs and the rest of the ingredients very well until as smooth as possible.
- Pour about a quarter of the mixture into a well-oiled tamago pan or non-stick skillet and spread as if you are making a crepe. As the mixture cooks, bubbles and sets, roll it and move it to the back of the pan. Brush more oil on the pan and some more of the mixture, making sure to get some under the roll. As it cooks, roll the old roll back to the front of the pan, then again to the back. Repeat until you are out of mixture.
- Remove roll from the pan and roll as you would a sushi roll, squeezing out excess liquid. You can roll it into either a round or rectangular shape and slice it when it has cooled. The slices can be served as is, or as nigiri, atop a mound of rice wrapped in a thin sheet of nori.

you got the pan? I've been looking around to no avail lol...tamagoyaki always looks good on rice! ;)
Gizelle, I got it from an online store more than a year ago. It was strange at first to eat sweet omelet. It goes very well with the rice and the strip of nori.:)
Looks yummy! I'll give this a try soon... only hope I don't ruin the omelet - hahaha! :D
Pinky, it's okay for it to break, you can form it back together.:)
