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 cookpad.japan -

For those people who want egg in their lunch box but don't have time.The egg comes off the plate really easily when folding it, meaning you don't need oil (which means it's healthy!). If it's undercooked when you fold it, reheat it for another 10 seconds in the microwave.If you use a round plate, your cooked egg will naturally become omelette-shaped.

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 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 cookpad.japan -
For Bento Lunch Boxes (Tofu & Shio-Koji Omelette) For Bento Lunch Boxes (Tofu & Shio-Koji Omelette)
This is a recipe I learned from my mother.-In Step 1, if you're not going to use the microwave to drain the tofu, place a chopping board on it and let sit for 15 minutes (use a heavy chopping board).-Adjust the sugar amounts as desired.-Since it's got a lot of sugar it'll burn easily. Keep a careful eye on it while cooking.-If using salt please add 2/3 teaspoon. Recipe by Yuuyuu0221 cookpad.japan -
Eel Kabayaki Turned Into Umaki (Rolled Eel Omelette) - For Bentos and More Eel Kabayaki Turned Into Umaki (Rolled Eel Omelette) - For Bentos and More
I had umaki (eel omelette) for the first time at a famous eel restaurant, and I was amazed at how delicious it was! So I tried combining eel with an easy recipe I already had for making dashimaki tamago, or omelette with dashi stock. At the restaurant they incorporated chopped-up eel throughout the omelette, but I I just put it in the center.Ideally, you want to use charcoal grilled eel, but you can use cheap vacuum-packed eel from the supermarket or tough leftover eel. If you roll the omelette with chopsticks it falls apart, so use a spatula instead which is much easier. When rolling the omelette in a sushi mat, don't squeeze too hard. If you make a proper dashi stock, the omelette will be really delicious. Recipe by vegeful cookpad.japan
