How to Make Korean Street Food Egg Sandwich

  1. Toast two slices of bread to your desired level of crispness and spread butter evenly on both sides.
  2. In a small bowl, whisk 2 large eggs with a fork. Add 1/4 cup finely shredded cabbage and 1/4 cup finely shredded carrot.
  3. Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Add 1 teaspoon of oil (vegetable or canola). Pour the egg mixture onto the hot surface, tilting the pan to spread it evenly into a thin crepe-like omelet.
  4. While the omelet is cooking, prepare the fillings: Spread 1 teaspoon brown sugar, 1 tablespoon ketchup, and 1 tablespoon mayonnaise on one half of each slice of bread.
  5. Season the cooking omelet with salt, pepper, and a pinch of chili flakes (or a dash of your favorite hot sauce) to taste.
  6. Once the omelet is set but still slightly soft, carefully fold it in half.
  7. Place the folded omelet onto one slice of the prepared bread (with the condiments).
  8. Top with the other slice of bread.
  9. For an authentic street food experience, wrap the sandwich tightly in aluminum foil before serving.
