Instructions

Step 1: Prepare the Vegetables

1. Bring a pot of water to a boil and add 1 tsp salt.

2. Blanch the winter melon cubes for 3–4 minutes until slightly translucent, then remove and drain.

3. Blanch the bok choy for 1 minute, then transfer to ice water to keep the color vibrant.

4. Lightly score the tops of the shiitake mushrooms with an X pattern for aesthetics.

5. Steam or sauté the mushrooms for 3–4 minutes until tender.

6. Drizzle a little sesame oil on the veggies if desired.

1. Whisk eggs with milk/water, salt, pepper, green onion, and bell pepper.

2. Heat a small nonstick pan over low heat, add 1 tsp oil.

3. Pour a thin layer of egg mixture into the pan.

4. When the egg is 80% cooked, start rolling it gently from one side.

5. Push the rolled egg to one side of the pan.

6. Add another thin layer of egg mixture, let it set slightly, then continue rolling.

7. Repeat until all the egg mixture is used.

8. Remove the rolled omelette, let it cool slightly, then slice into rounds.

Step 3: Plate Everything
