Steps

1. 01

   Let's make the egg sheet that will provide the protein for today's breakfast. Heat a pan, add a little cooking oil, then wipe it off with a paper towel. Beat 2 eggs with a pinch of salt, pour onto the pan, and cook over low heat. Use chopsticks to flip it. Let it cool slightly, then roll it up and slice thinly.

2. 02

   About 230g of dough was left over. Shape it into 1cm balls. Steam for 15 minutes. (You can add the dough without steaming it first, but if you want a softer texture, I recommend steaming it beforehand.)

3. 03

   Bring water to a boil with 1t seafood stock powder, 1t tuna extract, and thinly sliced shiitake mushrooms, then add the steamed potato balls from step 2. Simmer over low heat for 2-3 minutes, add the green onion, turn off the heat, stir in 2T perilla powder, then ladle into a bowl and pile generously with the egg sheet from step 1.
