Method:

1. Slice the mushrooms across, very finely.

2. Combine the soy sauce, sesame oil, lemon juice and mirin, and set aside.

3. Heat the olive oil in a small skillet and saute the mushrooms until soft, about 2 minutes. Remove from the heat and pour the soy mixture over the mushrooms. Stir well and allow to cool completely.

4. Place the Sesame Omelet on a flat work surface, with the seeds facing down. Place the cooled mushroom mixture across the center of the omelet. Sprinkle with the spring onion and bell pepper.

5. Roll the omelet over the filling, to form a cylinder with the filling in the middle.

6. Slice the omelet into quarters at an angle to serve as appetizers, or slice into 10 to 12 smaller rounds for hors d'oeuvres as shown.
