Tamagoyaki Sandwich (Japanese Egg Omelette Sando) | Japanese Cooking Video Recipe

Tamagoyaki is Japanese rolled omelette. In this recipe I will share with you how to make it using a microwave. In this way you can make nice and yellow Tamagoyaki without burning it.

If you use regular soy sauce, it can turn out brownish. Please use lighter colored soy sauce OR use transparent soy sauce like this one. https://amzn.to/3xk4wOI Or you can use white Dashi soup base instead of soy sauce and Dashi powder. https://amzn.to/3dLcyIx

Ingredients

chopped green onion

cooking oil

2. Heat cooking oil in a frying pan. Cook both sides of Daikon on medium until slightly browned.

3. Dress with A until shiny fragrant (it turns bitter if you burn too much but it is tasty in this way, it is up to your preference).

* Instead of Teriyaki sauce, you can simply season with salt and pepper! It is delicious, too.
