*Sweet* and fluffy scrambled eggs are packed between slices of bread—one bite of this egg sandwich will make your morning feel special!

Recipe background:
I once tried a famous sandwich in Takarazuka with an incredibly thick, fluffy egg filling that was unforgettable!

Since then, I’ve made my own version with a slightly sweet, thick omelet just the way I like it.

Steps

1

Mix the eggs with milk, sugar, mayonnaise, and salt. Heat a little oil (not listed in ingredients) in a tamagoyaki (Japanese omelet) pan or small nonstick skillet over low heat. Stir constantly to make soft scrambled eggs.
2

When the scrambled eggs are about 80–90% cooked, turn off the heat. Fold the eggs in half to make a thick omelet. It’s delicious just like this!
3

Spread a thin, even layer of Aurora sauce (ketchup-mayo mix) on the bread. Place the thick omelet on one slice, then top with the other slice of bread.
4

Cut the sandwich and enjoy! Warm café au lait or coffee goes great with this in the morning.
5

Note: I use large eggs for this recipe. If you have medium eggs, use 3 for an extra fluffy, thick omelet.
