Japanese Egg Sandwiches
Japanese egg sandwiches, also known as tamagoyaki sandwiches or tamago sandos, are a popular type of sandwich that typically consist of a layer of sweetened, rolled omelette (tamagoyaki) between slices of soft white bread. They are often sold as a convenient, portable breakfast option or as a snack at convenience stores and sandwich shops in Japan. The tamagoyaki used in these sandwiches is typically made with a mixture of eggs, sugar, and soy sauce and is cooked in a special rectangular tamagoyaki pan. Some variations may also include ingredients such as green onions, bacon or mayonnaise. Here is a simple recipe:
Japanese Egg Sandwich
- 1 tbsp of Mayo
- 3 Hard boiled eggs
- ½ tsp of Dijon mustard
- Pinch of Salt
- White pepper
- Onion powder
- 2 slices of White Bread
Slice one boiled egg in half and chop up your two other eggs. Mix your chopped eggs with mustard, mayo, onion powder, salt and pepper. Place halved eggs on a slice of white bread, put egg salad on top and place a second slice on top. Remove the crust with a knife and cut the sandwich in half. Enjoy!
Hawaiian Pulled Pork Sandwich
Hawaiian pulled pork sandwiches, also known as kalua pork sandwiches, are a popular dish that feature slow-cooked, shredded pork that has been seasoned with Hawaiian sea salt and liquid smoke. The pork is traditionally cooked in an imu, a traditional Hawaiian underground oven, but a slow cooker or oven will get the job done. It's important to cook the meat thoroughly, until it is tender and easily pulled apart with a fork. It is served on a bun or bread, with traditional toppings such as coleslaw, pickles, or pineapple. It has also known as a staple in Hawaiian Plate Lunch. It is often associated with Hawaiian luau parties, but it is a popular food item served at many Hawaiian-style restaurants and food trucks. Sounds delicious! Why not give making one a try?
- Kings hawaiian bread
- Pulled pork
- Hawaiian Style potato chips
- Slice of Pineapple
- Sliced Cheese
Place two slices of cheese on bread, top it up with a slice of pineapple and add a generous amount of pulled pork on top. Add a bunch of hawaiian potato chips on top, cut the sandwich in half and Enjoy!
BLT
BLT stands for bacon, lettuce, and tomato sandwich. It is a popular sandwich that typically consists of several strips of crispy bacon, lettuce, and slices of tomato, all served on toasted bread, usually white bread but other breads can be used too. Mayo is a common condiment that is added to the sandwich to give it more moisture. The BLT has been a staple sandwich in American cuisine since it became popular in the early 20th century. It’s a simple but delicious sandwich, the combination of crispy bacon, fresh lettuce and juicy tomato creates a perfect balance of flavors and textures. It’s usually served as a lunch or brunch option. This is a Classic Sandwich that is easily made. Give it a go.
- 2 slices of white sandwich bread

- Mayo
Fry bacon on either the stove top or in an air-fryer, or microwave pre-cooked bacon in a pinch. Optionally, toast your bread for an additional crunch. Spread mayo generously on both slices of bread. Place whole leaf lettuce, sliced tomato, and your bacon strips as high as you please. Slice that bad boy in half and Enjoy!
