The method

Step by step

  1. 1

    In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, sugar, and salt until well combined.

    About 1 min

  2. 2

    Add the shredded cabbage, carrot, and chopped green onion to the egg mixture and stir gently to combine.

    About 1 min

  3. 3

    Heat half of the butter in a large non-stick skillet over medium-low heat until melted.

    About 1 min

  4. 4

    Dip one slice of bread into the egg mixture, ensuring both sides are well coated.

    Cook’s note: Don't soak too long, just enough to coat.

  5. 5

    Place the coated bread slice into the hot skillet.

  6. 6

    Pour half of the remaining egg mixture onto the bread in the pan, spreading it evenly to cover the top.

    Cook’s note: This forms the thick, fluffy egg layer.

  7. 7

    Cook for 2-3 minutes per side, or until the egg is set and golden brown.

    About 6 min

    Cook’s note: Adjust heat as needed to prevent burning.

  8. 8

    Remove from the pan and set aside. Repeat with the remaining butter, bread, and egg mixture.

  9. 9

    Cut each Gyeran Toast in half diagonally and serve immediately, optionally drizzled with ketchup.
