- 1 Tbsp Mirin (Japanese sweet rice wine)
- 1 Tbsp Tsuyu (savory soy sauce seasoning)
- Pinch of Black Pepper
- 1 tsp Sugar
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
First, prepare all your sandwich ingredients fresh. Wash the tomato thoroughly and pat it dry. Wash the romaine lettuce under running water and shake off excess moisture. Prepare the sausages by slicing them for easy cooking.
Step 2
In a bowl, crack 3 fresh eggs. Add 1 tablespoon of Tsuyu for savory flavor, 1 tablespoon of Mirin for depth, and a pinch of black pepper for aroma. Mix in 1 teaspoon of sugar to enhance the eggs’ softness. Whisk everything together vigorously with a whisk until well combined.
Step 3
Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium-low heat. Pour in the whisked egg mixture. After about 30 seconds, when the eggs begin to set slightly, gently stir them with chopsticks, moving from the edges towards the center. The secret to soft scrambled eggs is to turn off the heat while they are still slightly moist. They will finish cooking with the residual heat.
Step 4
With the heat off, tilt the pan slightly to spread the eggs evenly, and let them cook for another 30 seconds. This allows the residual heat to cook the eggs further, resulting in incredibly soft and moist scrambled eggs that melt in your mouth.
Step 5
Place the sausages in a dry skillet over medium-low heat and cook until golden brown and slightly crispy. Cooking them without oil makes them less greasy and more flavorful. Flip them occasionally to ensure even browning.
Step 6
Slice the browned sausages in half lengthwise. Slice the ripe tomato into approximately 0.5 cm thick rounds to add a crisp texture to the sandwich.
Step 7
Carefully slice around the edge of the Costco pita bread. The bread is designed to open up like a pocket in the center, making it easy to fill with ingredients. Be gentle to avoid tearing the bread.
Step 8
This is the fig jam for the sandwich’s sweetness. If you’re not a fan of fig jam, any jam you prefer, such as strawberry or blueberry, will work wonderfully. (For reference: You can find my homemade fig jam recipe at the link @7011739!)
Step 9
Spread a thin layer of fig jam inside the prepared pita bread. Layer with slices of cheddar cheese, followed by a generous amount of crisp romaine lettuce. Finally, arrange the soft scrambled eggs attractively on top.
Step 10
Arrange the cooked sausages and tomato slices on top of the eggs. Then, gently close the pita bread to complete the filling of your egg sandwich.
Step 11
Wrap the sandwich tightly with plastic wrap to hold everything together. This makes it easier to eat and keeps the fillings neat and contained.
Step 12
Finally, use a serrated knife or a sharp knife to cut the wrapped sandwich in half. Cut carefully to reveal the colorful cross-section.
Step 13
Even half of this sandwich is incredibly filling and satisfying. The combination of diverse ingredients and the soft eggs creates a wonderful flavor. It’s perfect as a nutritious snack for kids or a light meal. Enjoy your delicious homemade egg sandwich!
