Description

A light and fluffy Korean rolled omelette made with seasoned eggs, often filled with vegetables, and sliced into bite-sized pieces for a simple side dish or snack.


Ingredients

  • 4 large eggs
  • 2 tablespoons milk or water
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/4 cup finely chopped carrots
  • 1/4 cup finely chopped green onions
  • 1/4 cup finely chopped bell pepper (optional)
  • 1 teaspoon sesame oil (optional)
  • 1 teaspoon vegetable oil (for cooking)


Instructions

  1. Crack eggs into a bowl, add milk (or water), salt, and black pepper. Beat until well combined.
  2. Stir in carrots, green onions, and bell pepper if using.
  3. Heat a nonstick pan over low-medium heat and lightly grease with vegetable oil.
  4. Pour a thin layer of egg mixture into the pan, tilting to spread evenly.
  5. When the egg is half set, gently roll it from one side to the other using a spatula or chopsticks, pushing it to one side of the pan.
  6. Pour in more egg mixture, let it cook slightly, then roll again over the first roll.
  7. Repeat until all egg mixture is used and the omelette is fully rolled.
  8. Remove from pan, let it cool slightly, then slice into bite-sized pieces.
  9. Serve warm or at room temperature as a side dish, snack, or in a lunchbox.

Notes

  • Cook over low heat to prevent burning and to achieve a soft texture.
  • Customize fillings with ham, cheese, or seaweed.
  • For a traditional flavor, drizzle a little sesame oil into the egg mixture.
