Tamagoyaki Bento Box Recipes

Steps:

• Beat the eggs in a small bowl. Add edamame and soy sauce.
• Pour the egg mixture into a nonstick pan over low heat, and swirl the egg around the pan into a perfect circle. When the egg is cooking through, fold both side and roll.
• Wrap with plastic and arrange the shape. Cool in the fridge.
• Cut into half. Place into the bento box.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• Whisk eggs, dashi stock, sugar, mirin, and soy sauce together in a bowl.
• Heat 1/3 of the oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add about 1/3 of the egg mixture and quickly swirl the pan to evenly cover the bottom. Start rolling up the omelette from one side to the other as soon as it is set.
• Keep the roll to one side, then add another 1/3 of the oil to the skillet and another 1/3 of the egg. Swirl the pan, ensuring the entire bottom is covered, including around and underneath the first roll. Cook until set. Roll up from the side containing the first roll, so that is now at the center.
• Repeat the process with the remaining oil and egg. Transfer rolled omelette to a bamboo rolling mat. Roll up tightly and allow to cool for a few minutes.
• Unwrap the omelette and slice into 6 pieces. Serve warm or cold.

Steps:

• Beat the eggs, sugar, 1/8 teaspoon salt and 4 1/2 teaspoons water in a medium bowl until well combined but not foamy.
• Heat a 7 1/2-by-5 1/2-inch tamagoyaki pan (or an 8-inch nonstick skillet) over medium heat. Fold a piece of paper towel, dip it into vegetable oil and use it to grease the pan.
• Pour in enough of the egg mixture to lightly coat the bottom of the pan, tilting the pan as needed. Cook until the egg is just set on the bottom but a little underdone on the top, about 1 minute. Using chopsticks or a spatula (see Cook's Note), roll up the egg from the far end of the pan toward you. If you are having trouble getting the egg to fold over itself, use your fingers or a fork to help it along. When the egg is rolled up, push it to the far end of the pan.
• Grease the exposed part of the pan with the piece of paper towel. Pour in enough of the egg mixture to lightly coat the bottom of the pan, tilting the pan as needed. Cook until the egg is just set on the bottom but a little underdone on the top, 30 seconds to 1 minute. Start with the already rolled egg at the far end of the pan and, using chopsticks or a spatula, roll the omelet toward you. Repeat the process until all of the egg mixture is cooked. (For 2 eggs in a 7 1/2-by-5 1/2-inch tamagoyaki pan, you'll generally form about 4 layers.)
• Carefully turn the rolled omelet out onto a cutting board (see Cook's Note) and slice crosswise into 3/4-inch pieces. Serve topped with grated daikon and/or a drizzle of soy sauce if using.
