Ingredients

  • Eggs - 4 large
  • Soy sauce - 1 tablespoon
  • Mirin - 1 tablespoon
  • Dashi stock - 2 tablespoons
  • Cooking oil - 1 tablespoon
  • Cucumber - 1 medium, julienned
  • Radish - 1 medium, julienned
  • Avocado - 1 medium, sliced
  • Mixed greens - 100 grams
  • Sesame seeds - 1 tablespoon
  • Green onions - 2 stalks, chopped

Steps

  1. In a bowl, whisk together eggs, soy sauce, mirin, and dashi stock until well combined.
  2. Heat a non-stick frying pan over medium heat and add half the cooking oil, swirling it to coat the pan.
  3. Pour a thin layer of the egg mixture into the pan, tilting it to spread evenly. Cook until the edges set, then gently roll the omelette towards one side of the pan.
  4. Add a little more oil, then pour another thin layer of egg mixture into the pan, lifting the rolled omelette to let the uncooked egg flow underneath. Cook until set, then roll again. Repeat until all the egg mixture is used.
  5. Remove the omelette from the pan and let it cool slightly before slicing into thin strips.
  6. In a large bowl, combine mixed greens, cucumber, radish, and avocado. Toss gently to mix.
  7. Top the salad with the sliced tamagoyaki, sprinkle with sesame seeds and chopped green onions.
  8. Serve immediately and enjoy your Tamagoyaki Salad!
