1 cucumber

1/3 cup mozzarella cheese

0.5 tbsp soy sauce

two pinches of salt

1 drizzle of olive oil

1 tbsp mirin

a little cooking oil

Recipe

Trim the ends off the cucumber, cut it lengthwise into quarters, then slice out the seedy, watery center with a knife.
Toss the prepared cucumber with 0.5 tbsp soy sauce and a little salt, and let it sit briefly to absorb the seasoning.
Remove the stems from the tomatoes and finely chop them.
Heat olive oil in a pan, add the chopped tomatoes and a pinch of salt, and sauté over high heat for 1 minute, then transfer to a bowl and let cool.
Crack 4 eggs, add a pinch of salt and 1 tbsp mirin, and beat well until smooth to make the egg mixture.
Preheat a pan over low heat, add a little cooking oil, pour in a small amount of the egg mixture, then drain the sautéed tomatoes slightly and top with the cucumber and mozzarella cheese.
Wrap the fillings by rolling the egg, push it to the back of the pan, add more oil to the empty space, and pour in more egg mixture to continue rolling.
Repeat until all the egg mixture is used up, cook through over low heat, then let it cool slightly and slice into bite-sized pieces.

Remove the cucumber seeds and season with soy sauce and salt. Finely chop the tomatoes and sauté in olive oil for 1 minute, then cool.
Beat the eggs, pour into a low-heat pan, then layer the sautéed tomatoes, cucumber, and mozzarella cheese in order and roll it up.
Continue adding egg mixture to build a thick roll, shape it, let it cool slightly, then slice and serve.

Cooking tips

Sautéing tomatoes in olive oil increases the absorption of the antioxidant lycopene and enhances the flavor.
Overcooking tomatoes releases too much water, so sauté quickly over high heat for no more than 1 minute to maintain texture.
Removing the cucumber seeds and seasoning with salt and soy sauce prevents the egg roll from becoming bland and preserves its distinctive crunch.
Because of the cheese, slicing while too hot can ruin the shape, so be sure to let it cool for 5 minutes before cutting.
