Gyeran mari

The rolled Korean omelet, soft and streaked with colorful vegetables. A banchan classic that easily slips into breakfast too.

Ingredients

  • 4 pieces Eggs
  • 0.5 pieces Carrot
  • 2 sprigs Scallion
  • 0.25 pieces Red bell pepper
  • 1 sheet Nori seaweed sheet
  • 1 pinch Salt
  • 1 tbsp Neutral oil
  • 1 tsp Toasted sesame seeds

Method

  1. Beat the eggs with the salt without making them too frothy, then pass them through a sieve for a smooth texture.
  2. Cut the carrot, bell pepper, and scallion into very fine dice. Stir them into the eggs.
  3. Lightly oil a rectangular (or standard) skillet and heat over low.
  4. Pour in a third of the mixture in a thin layer. When the surface begins to set, place the nori sheet on top.
  5. Gently roll the omelet from one edge to the other, pushing it to the side of the pan.
  6. Pour in another third of the eggs, let them flow under the existing roll, then roll again. Repeat with the remainder.
  7. Let cool slightly for 2 minutes, then cut into even pieces. Sprinkle with sesame seeds.
