I first saw this banchan on Korean dramas (hello Boys before flowers) of course. It's called 계란말이 (gaeranmari) which is basically just a rolled up egg. Not rocket science here. First start by chopping up whatever you want in your egg. Think of it like an omelet.
I think I used onion, green onion, korean turkey ham, mushrooms, carrots, and a slice of torn up cheese. Second mix 3 eggs with the rest of the ingredients. This is where my pictures start. Heat a frying pan up with a little oil and pour 1/3 of the egg mixture onto the pan (this is important..if you pour it all in at once, it will be too thick and won't roll properly). Let it cook and then slowly start to roll up one edge with a spatula. Once you roll it a little, pour in some more of the egg mixture (about half of what's left) and swivel the pan around so the egg mixture covers the remaining area. Continue rolling and repeat the process with the remaining egg mixture. When the roll is complete, cook on all 4 sides to ensure the roll holds together. Then slice the roll into small sushi-roll like pieces and you're finished! I like to arrange the pieces on their sides so you can see the rolled up part and think of myself as fancy.

Mix everything together with the 3 eggs..sometimes I add a little milk if I have it too..

Pour into frying pan |
|
Begin to roll carefully |
|
Continue rolling and pour in more of the egg mixture |
|
Once the rolling is complete, cook on all 4 sides..I like it to be a little brown, but it's your preference |

Lastly, slice the roll (and place into box to replicate the Korean bento lunchbox) |
Yum! We had sushi Friday night with Natalie.
