계란말이, Gyeranmari, Korean egg roll with seaweed (kim,김). If you don’t like seaweed, you can make this pretty egg roll with vegetables, meat or seafood. It’s delicious and pretty. Also, it tastes good at room temperature so makes a good boxed lunch food.

Ingredients:
3-4 eggs, blended well
1 1/2 sheets of kim (dried seaweed)
a little oil
salt and pepper

flat bottomed wok or frying pan
2 thin spatulas for turning
sushi rolling mat

Serve with ketchup (or a little go chu jang mixed with soy sauce)

If you’ve never made this, here’s a good video. She makes it look easy!

1) Heat up a non-stick frying pan or wok on low
2)Pour in a little of the eggs and swirl around to coat bottom
3) Let eggs partially cook and lay a sheet of kim on top. Use the two spatulas to gently fold over the top corner.
4) With the spatulas, move the omelette/seaweed up to the top of the frying pan and pour in a little more egg mixture in the vacated space at the bottom of the frying pan. Add a little more seaweed onto this bare egg.
5) Keep cooking on low and rolling the the omelette over the seaweed at the top. Roll, cook, roll, cook, and add the remaining egg to the bottom of the omelette until done.
6) There should be a little bit of raw-ish egg left to complete the egg roll. The raw egg will help the roll stick together.
7) Cook the completed roll on all sides until all sides just golden colored.
8) When done, remove from frying pan and roll up in a sushi rolling mat to help form its shape. Leave to rest for a few minutes. Then slice.
9) Enjoy with ketchup as the Koreans do or serve with any sauce you fancy. I like go chu jang or other spicy chili sauce. This morning we ate ours with go chu jang and a little soy sauce.

My favorite kind of food; cheap, easy and delicious. I wish I’d known about Thai omelette when I was a poor college student, surviving on ramen and boxed mashed potatoes.

Ingredients
3 eggs
1 tsp soy sauce (or fish sauce, if not vegetarian)
dash white pepper
light oil for deep frying
wok
sriracha

for dipping sauce
soy sauce (or fish sauce)
squeeze of fresh lime juice
1 red chili, sliced
1 green chili, sliced
quarter of white onion, diced

1) Heat up enough oil for deep frying the eggs, about a couple cm deep in the wok
2) whisk the eggs with soy sauce and white pepper, thoroughly, until there are no lumps of egg white. Traditionally this is made with fish sauce, but soy sauce is a tasty alternative for us veggies.
3) Test that the oil is hot enough by dropping a bit of egg into it. If it immediately fries and curls, the oil is ready.
4) Have a plate with paper towel nearby.
5) Pour the eggs into the hot oil. The eggs should immediately puff up and bubble up in the oil, like a giant souffle. Fry on one side until the bottom of the egg is golden brown, about a minute or less. Carefully flip using two spatulas, mindful not to splatter hot oil on yourself. Cook the other side and then lift the omelette out of the wok and drain on the paper towel. The omelette will be savory, soft and crispy on the edges.

Serve with sriracha and hot jasmine rice or eat on its own with dipping sauce. Surprisingly scrumptious for such a simple meal!
