Steps

1

Crack the eggs into a bowl, add a pinch of salt, and beat well.
2

Lightly oil a frying pan and pour in the eggs to make a large, thin omelet. Place the cheese in the center and sprinkle black pepper over the top.
3

Fold both sides of the omelet toward the center to match the size of the cheese, then place the ham in the middle.
4

Fold the ham as well. It’s easier to fold if you make a light cut with a spatula.
5

Shape into a rectangle.
6

Flip and cook the other side well, then transfer to a plate.
7

Toast the bread. Spread mayonnaise and black pepper on one slice, and butter and ketchup on the other.
8

Layer lettuce and then the omelet on top of the mayonnaise slice, then top with the ketchup slice to make a sandwich.
9

Insert toothpicks and cut the sandwich to keep it from falling apart. Enjoy!
10

If packing for a bento, let the omelet cool before assembling the sandwich.
