Ingredients

Main Ingredients (2 servings)

  • Eggplant 1 (approx. 150g)
  • Imitation Crab Sticks 3 sticks
  • Mixed Cheese 30g
  • Egg 1

Seasonings

  • Salt 1/4 tsp

Steps

  1. Cut off the stem of 1 eggplant (approx. 150g) and slice into 1-1.5cm thick rounds.
  2. Soak the sliced eggplant in water for about 5 minutes to remove bitterness.
  3. Finely chop 3 imitation crab sticks into 1cm pieces and shred them using the side of your knife.
  4. Carefully hollow out the center of the eggplant slices with a plastic bottle cap. Use a pointed object for easier hollowing. If a cap is unavailable or doesn't fit, use a spoon.
  5. Finely tear the hollowed-out eggplant pieces and place them in a bowl.
  6. Finely chop the outer edges of the eggplant with a knife and add them to the bowl.
  7. Sprinkle 1/4 tsp salt over the eggplant in the bowl and gently massage until softened.
  8. Squeeze out the water from the salted eggplant and add it to the bowl along with the shredded imitation crab sticks.
  9. Add 30g mixed cheese and 1 egg to the bowl, then mix everything together while lightly beating.
  10. Lightly oil a frying pan and heat over medium heat.
  11. Once the pan is hot, arrange the hollowed-out eggplant rounds and spoon the mixed filling into the center of each.
  12. Cook until the bottom side is golden brown.
  13. Once browned, flip the omelets and cook the other side. Adjust and add oil as needed during cooking.
  14. Once both sides are golden brown, transfer to a plate.
  15. If the flavor is too bland, serve with your favorite condiments such as soy sauce.
