Ingredients

  • 1 slice Japanese sandwich bread (thick-cut)
  • Japanese mayonnaise (about 2 tablespoons)
  • 1 large egg
  • salt (to taste)
  • black pepper (to taste)
  • 1 slice bacon (chopped)
  • 1 scallion (chopped for garnish)

Instructions

  • Use the backside of a spoon to create an indentation in the center of the bread that's big enough to hold the egg.
