Introducing two dishes: a Spanish omelette made with seasonal zucchini and canned tuna, and a satisfying egg-based thickened sauce with tofu, perfect even without meat. These are easy, filling recipes that use plenty of eggs, all cooked in a single pan.

Ingredients

Main Ingredients (2 servings)

  • Firm Tofu 1 block
  • Eggs 4
  • Green Onions 3 stalks
  • Mini Tomatoes 6-8
  • Zucchini 1
  • Onion 1 small
  • Eggs 5
  • Milk 1 tbsp
  • Canned Tuna 1 can

Seasonings

  • [A] Mayonnaise 1 tbsp
  • [A] Salt & Pepper to taste
  • [B] Water 150ml
  • [B] Dashi Granules 1/2 tsp
  • [B] Soy Sauce 1.5 tbsp
  • [B] Sugar 1 tbsp
  • [B] Potato Starch 1 tsp
  • [C] Sesame Oil 1 tsp
  • [D] Soy Sauce 1 tsp
  • [D] Sugar 1 tsp
  • [D] Dashi Granules 1 tsp
  • [D] Salt & Pepper to taste

Steps

  1. Wrap 1 block of firm tofu in double-layered paper towels, place in a microwave-safe container, and microwave on 600W for 3 minutes 30 seconds to drain water.
  2. Cut the drained tofu into approx. 1cm cubes.
  3. Crack 4 eggs into a bowl, add 1 tbsp mayonnaise and salt & pepper to taste, and whisk well.
  4. Add 3 chopped green onions to the egg mixture and mix.
  5. Heat vegetable oil in a frying pan and add the cut tofu to stir-fry.
  6. The tofu is prone to breaking, so avoid over-stirring and be careful of scorching. Gently shake the pan to brown all sides.
  7. Once the tofu is browned and fragrant, pour in the whisked egg mixture.
  8. Cook over medium heat. When the edges start to set, stir-fry with chopsticks, mixing everything together in large movements. [Key Tip!] Mixing with the tofu makes it less likely to form large clumps and easier to mix.
  9. Once everything is stir-fried together, transfer to a plate.
  10. In the frying pan, combine 150ml water, 1/2 tsp dashi granules, 1.5 tbsp soy sauce, 1 tbsp sugar, and 1 tsp potato starch. Mix quickly.
  11. Heat and thicken to desired consistency.
  12. Once the mixture has thickened, add 1 tsp sesame oil for flavor.
  13. Pour the thickened sauce over the plated egg tofu.
  14. Sprinkle with green onions and, if desired, shichimi togarashi (Japanese seven-spice blend) for garnish. Complete.
  15. Cut 6-8 mini tomatoes into bite-sized pieces.
  16. Crack 5 eggs into a bowl, add 1 tbsp milk, 1 tsp soy sauce, 1 tsp sugar, and 1 tsp dashi granules. Whisk together.
  17. Add 1 can of drained canned tuna and the cut mini tomatoes to the egg mixture and mix well.
  18. Peel and thinly slice 1 onion.
  19. Cut off the ends of 1 zucchini and slice into approx. 2mm thick half-moons.
  20. Heat olive oil in a frying pan and stir-fry the sliced zucchini and onion.
  21. Lightly season with salt and pepper.
  22. Once the vegetables are softened and their moisture has evaporated, add them to the prepared egg mixture.
  23. Mix the egg mixture, zucchini, and onion thoroughly.
  24. Add a little more olive oil to the frying pan and pour in the egg mixture.
  25. Cook over medium heat. When the edges begin to set, use chopsticks to gently move the cooked parts towards the center, mixing everything. [Key Tip!] Since there are many eggs, once the egg mixture starts to cook, use chopsticks to push the cooked edges towards the center to form a beautiful round shape quickly.
  26. Once everything is mixed and semi-cooked, reduce heat to low, cover with a lid, and steam until the top is set.
  27. Once the top is set and browned, carefully flip the omelette to avoid burns.
  28. Place a plate on top, carefully remove the omelette, then return it to the frying pan. Cook over medium heat, using a spatula to shape it as it cooks.
  29. Once browned and shaped, transfer to a plate to serve. Complete.
