Method

Restated from the original video

1. 1

   Beat the eggs with the scallions, sugar, soy sauce and a pinch of salt.

2. 2

   Heat the oil in a 20 cm (8 in) nonstick frying pan over medium-low heat. Pour in the eggs and cook until the top is just set, 2-3 min.

3. 3

   Flip the omelet and cook for 30 seconds more, until no liquid egg remains. Slide it onto a board and cool slightly, then cut into 2 squares about 10 cm (4 in) wide.

4. 4

   In the same pan, warm the ham for 30 seconds per side until lightly browned. Set aside.

5. 5

   Lay a 30 cm (12 in) square of plastic wrap on the counter and place a nori sheet on it with one corner pointing at you and the shiny side down.

6. 6

   Wet your hands with salted water. Pat a quarter of the rice into a 10 cm (4 in) square in the middle of the nori.

7. 7

   Layer on a lettuce leaf, 2 slices of fully cooked ham and 1 tsp of the mayonnaise, then an omelet square. Top with another quarter of the rice, pressed flat.

8. 8

   Fold the nori corners over the filling one at a time, left, right, bottom, top, overlapping them to seal like an envelope.

9. 9

   Wrap tightly in the plastic and set it seam side down. Make the second sandwich the same way.

10. 10

    Rest for 10 min so the nori softens and sticks. Cut each through the plastic with a wet knife and peel away the wrap.
