We’ve created a fun and delicious rolled omelette, a featured menu item from the TV show ‘Excuse Me: Just Taste It!’ Episode 2. Follow this detailed guide to make this beloved Korean side dish with added vegetables for extra flavor and color!
Main Ingredients- 6 fresh eggs
- 1/4 carrot, finely chopped
- A small amount of chopped green onion
- A pinch of salt
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
Let’s begin making the star of today’s meal: a ‘Rolled Omelette’ (Gyeranmari) renowned for its soft texture and rich flavor. It’s a universally loved Korean side dish, so let’s make it easily and deliciously!
Step 2
First, prepare your vegetables. Wash the carrot and green onion thoroughly, then finely mince them using a food processor or a knife. This ensures they mix well with the egg mixture and makes it easier for picky eaters to enjoy the vegetables.
Step 3
In a large bowl, crack open the 6 fresh eggs. Add the finely minced carrot and green onion. Season the egg mixture with a pinch of salt. Be careful not to add too much salt; it’s best to taste and adjust as needed. Whisk gently with a fork or whisk until well combined.
Step 4
Heat a frying pan over medium-low heat and add a generous amount of cooking oil. Pour a thin layer of the egg mixture into the pan. Once the edges begin to set, carefully roll it up from one side. If there’s still uncooked egg, gently lift the rolled portion and pour more egg mixture underneath to cook it. Repeat this process, pouring more egg mixture and rolling, to create a thick and satisfying rolled omelette.
Step 5
Place the warm rolled omelette onto a bamboo sushi mat or a clean kitchen towel. While it’s still warm, gently press down with the mat to shape it into a neat rectangle. Press evenly on all sides to firm it up. This will result in clean, distinct layers when sliced.
Step 6
Transfer the shaped rolled omelette to a cutting board. Using a sharp knife, slice it diagonally into bite-sized pieces, about 1.5 cm thick. To prevent sticking, you can lightly wet the knife with water or wipe it clean between cuts for a neater finish.
Step 7
Arrange the beautifully made rolled omelette on a serving plate. The colorful vegetables and soft egg will make for a visually appealing dish.
Step 8
Your nutritious ‘Rolled Omelette’ packed with vegetables is now complete! Enjoy this delicious dish alongside a warm bowl of rice or as a delightful lunchbox addition.
