Taiwanese Sandwich

I made this sandwich the night before for my kids' and husband lunch. The next afternoon (after lunch) my husband called and complemented me on the sandwich. He said it was better than what he had growing up in Taiwan. My 2 daughters (ages 8 and 6)who are picky eaters by nature also finished their lunch. So tonight, I made some more and decided to share this simple recipe with you.

Ingredients:
white or wheat bread
mayonaise
cucumber
ham
2 eggs

Steps:
Beat eggs*. Heat a non stick pan and make a egg pancake.
Spread mayonaise on 4 slices of bread.
First layer cucumber. Second layer ham. Third layer egg pancake.
Cut the sandwich diagonally and wrap in plastic wrap**.

note*: I seasoned the egg with a little sugar and salt.
note**: To make it look like the real thing, I cut the edges and put one half of the sandwich into a custom plastic wrap. Uwajimaya sells these wrap. They are $3.50 for 10.
