Instructions
Prep (Recommended music for prep- Katy Perry Chained to the Rhythm)
- In a small pan, heat water - add salt to taste (~ 2 pinches).
- When water comes to a boil, turn down heat to a gentle boil.
- Add oatmeal, cover pan, boil for 5 minutes and strain. Spread out oatmeal on a cutting board and let it sit out so it loses moisture.
- Chop almonds into small chunks.
- Rinse your blueberries and dry them with a towel like a baby's bottom after bath time.
- Crack eggs into a small bowl, gently beat them with a fork, and add salt and maple syrup. (Say thank you to chickens and each egg. - Marie Kondo)
Cooking (Recommended playlist for cooking - Calvin Harris Rollin' and Katy Perry Roulette (pronounced 'roll it')
- Turn on a small stove burner to low heat.
- Using long cooking chopsticks and a piece of paper towel, coat pan with coconut oil. (Watch tamagoyaki cooking basics here.)
- With a fork or chopsticks, put a small amount of egg on the pan. If it sizzles, the pan is hot enough.
- Pour enough egg into pan to make a thin layer. Tilt the pan back and forth and side to side so the egg coats the entire bottom.
- Once the layer of egg is half cooked, add fillings on top of one third of the layer of egg (in this order: almonds, oatmeal, cinnamon, and blueberries). See photo above.
- With a spatula, roll up the tamagoyaki towards you to carefully wrap the fillings inside like a burrrrito.
- Once completely rolled up, nudge the roll to the far side of the pan, away from you.
- Repeat the process from step 2- recoat the pan with coconut oil, add egg, and roll. Continue this process until you run out of egg mixture. Tip- When adding second or third layers of egg, gently lift the tamagoyaki with cooking chopsticks so the raw eggs can slide underneath the entire roll and coat the entire pan.
