1
Do you have a square tamagoyaki pan?
-
2
Then all you need otherwise is paper and aluminum foil.
-
3
Measure the inner width of the tamagoyaki pan with a ruler, and cut a piece of paper that's 5 cm wider than that.
-
4
Roll it up to make a 1 cm diameter cylinder, and secure with tape.
-
5
Wrap aluminium foil around the cylinder, and butter thinly with your fingers.
-
6
Put the unsalted butter in the tamagoyaki pan, and heat the pan up just a little to melt the butter.
-
7
Put the egg and sugar in a bowl and beat together, then add the sifted pancake mix, soy milk and melted butter.
-
8
Don't wipe off the butter in the tamagoyaki pan.
-

Heat up the pan and then cool it down by settomg on a moistened kitchen towel, then back on the heat.
-
10
Add about 1/2 a ladle full of the batter and spread it in the pan, then cook until bubbles form on the surface over low-medium heat.
-
11
Put the prepared foil wrapped cylinder in the pan on the far side, and roll the cooked batter around it using a spatula.
-
12
Shift the rolled up batter to the back of the pan again, and pour in more batter.
-
13
(If it sticks to the pan, oil the pan first.)
-
14
When the surface is bubbly once more, roll it around the cylinder again.
-
15
Repeat Step 5 patiently until all the batter is used up.
-
16
Roll, roll roll.
-
17
Done.

Leave until cool.

Once it has cooled down, slowly take out the cylinder in the middle, slice into rings of your preferred width and enjoy.
