Cabbage Ham Korean Street Toast

Cabbage Ham Korean Street Toast

Shred the cabbage and carrot very finely, blot them with paper towel if they feel wet, and mix them into 3 beaten eggs just before cooking so the filling does not turn watery. Cook each omelet covered over medium heat for about 2 minutes, flip, and give it 1 to 2 minutes more so the center stays moist but not runny. Sprinkle 2 tsp sugar directly on the toasted bread, then layer on the mayonnaise, omelet, ham and ketchup.

The sugar is not stirred into a sauce; it is scattered straight onto the toasted bread, followed by mayonnaise, the omelet, ham and ketchup.

Instructions

6 steps
  1. 1

    Shred 160 g cabbage and 40 g carrot very finely, then blot them with paper towel if they feel wet.

    Beat 3 eggs in a bowl, add the vegetables, and mix just before cooking so the filling does not turn watery.

  2. 2

    Heat a pan over medium heat and melt half of the 1 tbsp butter.

    Divide the egg and vegetable mixture into two portions, then spread each one flat to roughly match the size of a bread slice.

  3. 3

    Cover the omelet and cook for about 2 minutes, until the edges set and the bottom holds together.

    Flip carefully, lower the heat slightly, and cook 1 to 2 minutes more so the center stays moist but not runny.

  4. 4

    In the same pan, sear 2 ham slices for about 30 seconds per side, just until the edges turn lightly golden.

    Add the remaining butter as needed and toast 4 bread slices until crisp outside and still soft inside.

  5. 5

    Sprinkle 2 tsp sugar directly over two toasted bread slices, dividing it evenly.

    Spread 2 tbsp mayonnaise over the sugared bread, then stack one cabbage omelet and one slice of ham on each sandwich base.

  6. 6

    Drizzle 2 tbsp ketchup in a zigzag over the fillings and cover with the remaining bread slices.

    Press lightly with your palm so the layers settle, then cut each toast in half and serve while warm.
