Why does Korean rolled omelette tear?

Thick layers and oversized vegetable pieces make rolling harder. Build several thin layers instead of one heavy sheet.

What to try

  1. Finely chop the vegetables and beat the egg mixture evenly.

  2. Use moderate heat and roll when a layer holds together but remains flexible.

  3. Add the next thin layer beside the roll, allowing it to join before continuing.

Make a small adjustment, then check the result before changing the whole batch.
