Ingredients
Scale
- 2 tablespoons mayonnaise
- 2 teaspoons gochujang
- 1 medium head green cabbage, ~2 cups, shredded
- 1 large carrot, julienned
- 1 small yellow onion, finely chopped
- 2 green onions, finely chopped
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- ½ teaspoon black pepper
- ½ teaspoon gochugaru, korean red pepper flakes or regular red pepper flakes
- 8 large eggs
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
- 8 slices soft white bread, milk bread, brioche, or sandwich bread
- 4 slices cheddar cheese, medium
Instructions
- Mix mayonnaise and gochujang in a small bowl until smooth; set aside.
- Combine cabbage, carrot, onion, green onions, salt, pepper, and gochugaru in a large bowl and toss. Crack eggs into the bowl and mix until vegetables are coated.
- Heat a nonstick skillet over medium heat and add ½ tablespoon butter.
- Pour one-quarter of the vegetable-egg mixture into the skillet, forming a roughly square shape. Cook for 2-3 minutes until the bottom is golden brown.
- Flip the omelet and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until cooked through. Transfer to a plate. Repeat for remaining mixture, adding butter before each.
- Wipe the skillet if needed. Spread remaining butter on one side of each bread slice. Toast bread buttered-side down in the skillet until golden, about 1-2 minutes. Flip and toast the other side.
- Place a slice of cheddar on four pieces of bread, add a vegetable-egg omelet, top with spicy mayo, and cover with remaining bread slices.
- Return the sandwiches to the skillet over medium-low heat, pressing gently. Cook for 30 seconds per side until cheese melts slightly.
- Slice the sandwiches diagonally and serve immediately.
Notes
For extra flavor, let the spicy mayo sit for a few minutes before using.
Feel free to customize the veggies based on your preference or what you have available.
Serve with a side of pickled vegetables for a true Korean street food experience.
