Main Ingredients
- 6 Morning Buns
- 300g Fresh Cabbage
- 4 Eggs
- 1 tsp Salt
- Vegetable Oil, for cooking
- 1/4 cup Ketchup
- 1/4 cup Mustard
- 6 tsp Mayonnaise
- 6 slices Dill Pickle, thinly sliced
- 1 Tbsp Mirin (optional)
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
Thoroughly wash the fresh cabbage and shred it as thinly as possible. Briefly rinse the shredded cabbage in cold water to enhance its crispiness, then drain it well in a colander. Ensure all excess water is removed to prevent a soggy sandwich.
Step 2
Lightly oil a wide pan over medium heat. In a bowl, crack the 4 eggs, add 1 tsp of salt and 1 Tbsp of mirin (mirin is optional and can be omitted if you prefer). Whisk everything together. Pour the egg mixture into the pan all at once. As the egg cooks, gently fold the edges towards the center to create a rectangular omelet, which will make it easier to slice later.
Step 3
Once the omelet is cooked and shaped into a rectangle, slice it into 6 equal portions. These rectangular egg pieces are perfect for adding to your sandwiches.
Step 4
When preparing the morning buns for sandwiches, carefully slice them horizontally through the middle, but leave both ends intact. This creates a pocket that holds the fillings securely.
Step 5
Spread a thin, even layer of mayonnaise on the inside bottom half of each opened morning bun. The mayonnaise adds moisture and helps the other ingredients adhere well.
Step 6
In a bowl, combine the drained shredded cabbage with ketchup and mustard in a 1:1 ratio. Mix well until the cabbage is evenly coated. The crunchy cabbage combined with the sweet and tangy sauce is key to the sandwich’s flavor.
Step 7
Generously pile the dressed cabbage onto the mayonnaise-spread bottom half of each morning bun. Don’t be shy with the cabbage; more cabbage means a better texture and taste!
Step 8
Layer the sliced omelet and thin dill pickle slices on top of the cabbage. For an extra layer of deliciousness, add another generous portion of the dressed cabbage. If you don’t have dill pickles, a few very thinly sliced pieces of onion can be added for a similar zesty kick.
Step 9
Secure the assembled sandwiches with skewers or toothpicks to prevent them from falling apart. This makes them easy to handle and eat. Remember to remove the skewer before taking a bite. Enjoy your simple yet nutritious Morning Bun Cabbage Sandwiches!
