Korean Egg Drop Sandwiches at Home

Ingredients

• 2 pieces Bread Rolls (soft sandwich rolls or small baguette halves; cut each roll in half lengthwise)
• 2 tablespoons Unsalted Butter (softened for easy spreading)
• 4 slices Ham Slices (thinly sliced deli ham)
• 2 pieces Large Eggs (room temperature)
• 2 tablespoons Spicy Mayo (store‑bought (e.g., sriracha mayo) or homemade)
• 2 slices Dense Cheese Slices (cheddar, American, or provolone; convenient for stacking)
• 1 teaspoon Fresh Parsley (finely chopped for garnish)
• 1 pinch Salt (to season eggs)
• 1 pinch Black Pepper (freshly ground)

Instructions

1. Prepare the Bread

   Slice each bread roll in half lengthwise, then cut the halves into two equal pieces so you have four half‑rolls. Set aside.

   Time: PT2M

2. Butter and Toast the Bread

   Spread a thin layer of butter on the outer sides of each bread piece. Heat a non‑stick skillet over medium heat and place two pieces together, buttered side down, pressing lightly. Toast until golden brown, about 1‑2 minutes per side, then remove and keep warm.

   Time: PT3M

   Temperature: Medium

3. Cook the Ham

   In the same skillet, add the ham slices and cook for about 1 minute per side until lightly browned. Transfer to a plate.

   Time: PT2M

   Temperature: Medium

4. Beat and Cook the Eggs

   Crack the eggs into a bowl, add a pinch of salt and pepper, and beat until yolk and white are fully combined. Pour into the hot skillet, stirring gently. Cook over medium heat until about 75 % of the liquid evaporates (the mixture should look thick but still slightly glossy).

   Time: PT3M

   Temperature: Medium

5. Finish the Eggs with Residual Heat

   Turn off the heat and let the residual warmth finish cooking the eggs for another 30 seconds, ensuring they are fully set but still moist.

   Time: PT30S

6. Assemble the Sandwiches

   Place a toasted bread piece on a plate, drizzle with spicy mayo (use a squeeze bottle for neatness), add a cheese slice, a layer of ham, then the scrambled eggs. Top with another toasted bread piece, drizzle a little more mayo, and finish with a sprinkle of chopped parsley.

   Time: PT5M

7. Serve

   Serve immediately while warm. Enjoy with a cup of coffee or tea.

   Time: PT1M
