1
Prepare the Egg Mixture
In a mixing bowl, crack the eggs and beat them gently with a whisk or fork until the yolks and whites are fully combined.
2
Add Seasonings
Add sugar, soy sauce, mirin, and salt to the beaten eggs. Mix well until all ingredients are fully incorporated and the mixture is smooth.

3
Heat the Pan
Heat a rectangular or non-stick frying pan over medium-low heat and add oil. Make sure to coat the pan evenly.
4
Cook the Egg Mixture
Pour a small amount of the egg mixture into the pan, tilting it to cover the surface evenly. Cook until the edges start to set but the surface is still slightly wet.
5
Roll the Omelette
Using chopsticks or a spatula, gently roll the cooked edges towards the center of the pan. Once rolled, push the omelette to one side of the pan.
6
Repeat the Process
Add more egg mixture to the pan, ensuring it covers the bottom. Lift the rolled omelette to allow the new mixture to flow underneath. Cook until it sets, then roll the omelette again. Repeat this process until all the egg mixture is used.
7
Shape the Tamago
Once all layers are cooked, gently shape the tamago using a spatula to form a rectangular shape. Remove from the pan and let it cool slightly.

8
Slice and Serve
Once the tamago has cooled, slice it into even pieces and serve as a sushi topping or with rice.
