Heat a non-stick pan over the stove and coat it with a thin layer of cooking oil. Pour in the egg mixture and make a thin omelet. Cut the omelet into small squares.

Step 3 Assemble the Sushi
To shape the egg sushi, lay out a sheet of plastic wrap on a flat surface. Place a piece of egg, followed by rice and pickled radish, on the wrap. Gather the corners of the plastic wrap and twist it to form a round shape, resembling an egg.
Alternatively, you can start by placing a sheet of seaweed, followed by egg, rice, and pickled radish. Gather the corners of the seaweed and twist it to form a cute ball shape.
