• •1 tbsp soy sauce
• •1 tbsp mirin
• •1 tsp vegetable oil

Instructions

1. 1

   In a mixing bowl, crack the eggs and whisk them thoroughly.

2. 2

3. 3

   Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add the vegetable oil, coating the surface evenly.

4. 4

   Pour a small amount of the egg mixture into the skillet, tilting to cover the bottom.

5. 5

   Cook the eggs until they start to set but are still slightly runny on top, about 1-2 minutes.

6. 6

   Using a spatula, carefully roll the omelet towards one side of the skillet.

7. 7

   Add more egg mixture to the empty side of the skillet, lifting the rolled omelet to let it flow underneath.

   Remove the tamagoyaki from the skillet, let it cool slightly, and slice into pieces for serving alongside steamed rice.
