Rolled Egg with Crab Sticks

맛살 계란말이, MatSal GyeRanMalI

There are so many creative ideas to use for cooking eggs. A rolled egg is one of them. I always like my fried eggs with green onions, and I also wanted to make this recipe even more colorful and flavorful by adding red hot pepper and crab sticks. Instead of shredding the crab sticks or cutting them into little chunks, I will put the crab sticks in the center of the egg roll. The result was as great as I thought it would be, so I highly recommend you to try it. It is fun to make and delicious to taste. 😉
