- 1
Beat your eggs well in a bowl using either a fork, or chopsticks. Then add soy sauce, mirin dashi stock and sugar to your mix. Add a bit of salt and mix well again.
- 2
Put a small amount of cooking oil in your pan and bring it up to medium heat. Keep some kitchen roll handy to help keep the pan oiled during cooking.
- 3
Add a small amount (about 2-3 tbsp) of your egg mix into the heated pan. Once the egg has cooked slightly so that the top is still slightly uncooked, push it over to the side of your pan.
- 4
Add a little more oil to the pan using the kitchen roll to wipe the oil over the pan and add another small amount of the egg mix to your pan. Again, wait for your omelette to cook a little, but before it sets on top. You can then begin to roll the first bit of egg over the omelette you just put in the pan until you have a small roll of egg.
- 5
Continue adding a small amount of egg while oiling the pan each time in between. As you add more egg and roll it up each time, your egg roll will start getting larger and easier to add new layers. Keep your hop low heat. Keep adding the egg in new layers until you have used it all up.

Here you have ii! Your tamagoyaki or Japanese egg omelette. Remove it from the pan and wait to cool before slicing it up into thin pieces. You can sprinkle some thinly sliced spring onions on top. Serve with Japanese rice or put it in bento set.

Sushi Restaurant Tamagoyaki (Rolled Omelette) Sushi Restaurant Tamagoyaki (Rolled Omelette)
In our family, we have a home parties with hand-rolled sushi every month on payday. My husband is very picky about tamagoyaki and says "store-bought is better!" To shut him down, I adapted various recipes to my own preferences and taste. When he said "Yummy! This is the real thing!" I was so happy.There is a fair amount of sugar in this so it burns easily, but cook the omelette over as high a heat as you dare!! To control the heat, lift your pan up to put distance between the pan and the flame, rather than adjusting the flame itself. If you have an induction cooker, set it at 160°C (the setting for deep frying) and it should work well. Recipe by Minority

I adapted my mother's recipe to use shiro-dashi soy sauce. You can optionally add a little bit of regular soy sauce to taste.Cook the omelette over medium to low heat. There are two methods of starting a rolled omelette: the first is to have it gathered on one side from the start, while the other is to push the first batch of cooked egg to the edge of the pan. If you want the cross-sections to look pretty, have it rolled it up from the start.Adjust the amount of sugar to taste. Recipe by Yuuyuu0221 -

Sweetened Tamagoyaki Rolled Omelette for Bento Sweetened Tamagoyaki Rolled Omelette for Bento
This is my usual bento omelette. I always just estimate the ingredient amounts, but this time I measured them. This makes it easier to teach the recipe to family members.It contains sugar so it will burn if you turn the heat too high. Start on medium heat, warm the frying pan, coat with oil and warm, then pour in the mixture. Cook over fairly low to low heat. Finally, turn the heat up to medium to cook through.

For Bentos: Easy Microwave Tamagoyaki (Rolled Omelette) For Bentos: Easy Microwave Tamagoyaki (Rolled Omelette)
Ever since I came up with this method, I haven't used a frying pan to make tamagoyaki.I used a 10 cm x 6 cm (height) plate for this. If you use a plate that's too big, the omelette won't be very thick, so I recommend using a bowl shaped one. If the omelette comes out too tough, try adding a little more hot water the next time, or adjusting the microwave cooking time. Recipe by Nyamiane -

For Adult Bentos: Mentaiko Tamagoyaki (Rolled Omelette) For Adult Bentos: Mentaiko Tamagoyaki (Rolled Omelette)
This is a 1-egg mentaiko tamagoyaki, because making a bigger one with a whole mentaiko in the middle as they do at an izakaya (Japanese gastropub) is a bit too much.I mixed up the mentaiko with shiso leaves.The mentaiko is salty, so the egg is on the sweet side. It's very soft and fluffy due to the mayonnaise.I use a small square tamagoyaki pan to make this, so this amount is enough. Recipe by mama deko -
