Ingredients

• 4 large Eggs
• 1.5 tablespoons Erythritol
• 1 teaspoon Soy sauce (low-sodium or gluten-free if necessary)
• 2 teaspoons Mirin (sugar-free)
• 2 teaspoons Dashi stock (optional for added flavor)
• 1 teaspoon Avocado oil (or any neutral oil)

Directions

Step 1

In a medium mixing bowl, crack the eggs and beat them thoroughly until the yolks and whites are fully combined.

Step 2

Add the erythritol, soy sauce, sugar-free mirin, and dashi stock (if using) to the eggs. Whisk together until the mixture is smooth and well-combined.

Step 3

Heat a rectangular tamagoyaki pan or a small non-stick skillet over medium-low heat. Add a small amount (about 1/4 teaspoon) of avocado oil and spread it evenly using a paper towel.

Step 4

Pour a thin layer of the egg mixture (about 2-3 tablespoons) into the heated pan, just enough to coat the surface. Tilt the pan to ensure the egg spreads evenly.

Step 5

Let the egg cook until it is just set but not fully cooked, then roll it up from one side to the other using chopsticks or a spatula. Push the rolled egg to one side of the pan.

Step 6

Grease the pan lightly again if needed using the oiled paper towel. Pour another thin layer of the egg mixture into the pan, letting the liquid flow under the rolled egg. Repeat the process: allow the new layer to set partially, then roll the omelette, incorporating the previous roll into the new layer.

Step 7

Continue this layering and rolling process until all the egg mixture is used up. You should end up with a multi-layered rolled omelette.

Step 8

Remove the rolled omelette from the pan and transfer it onto a cutting board. Let it cool slightly before slicing into even pieces.

Step 9

Serve warm or at room temperature. This dish pairs well with a light salad or steamed vegetables for a balanced low-carb meal.
