Ingredients

  • 2 small sheets of nori - Japanese sushi seaweed
  • 2 large eggs
  • ½ teaspoon soy sauce
  • 1 teaspoon mirin
  • 1 teaspoon roast sesame oil
  • smoked dulse, to taste
  • roast sesame seeds, to taste
  • sticky rice or toast
  • extra soy sauce to serve

Instructions

  1. Collect together your equipment (see Recipe Notes below) and ingredients.

  2. Before cooking the eggs, add the nori to a dry pan over a high heat and cook for around a minute on both sides, or until roasted. Shred with scissors.

  3. Beat the eggs with the soy sauce and mirin.

  4. Heat the sesame oil over a moderately hot temperature and add the beaten eggs.

  5. As they cook, fold them into the centre of the pan rather than stir them as you would for European scrambled eggs – this is more of an over folded omelette!

  6. When cooked to your liking, transfer to a serving plate with the sticky rice or toast. I used some sticky rice I had leftover from the night before. Alternatively, serve on toast – sour dough would be perfect but any bread will work.

  7. Sprinkle over the smoked dulse, to taste, and the sesame seeds

  8. Top with the roast shredded nori.
