Okonomiyaki Recipe
This dish is so delicious, I'd recommend it to anyone around the world. Okonomiyaki (at least the style in this recipe) is basically shredded cabbage mixed with a pancake type batter, and topped with Okonomiyaki sauce, Japanese mayo, and bonito flake... More

Ingredients
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 3/4 cup water
  • 4 eggs
  • 8 oz cooked chicken, beef, bacon or shrimp (your choice of meat) sliced
  • 7-10 large cabbage leaves, chopped
  • 1 1/2 tbsp vegetable oil (for frying)
  • To Garish
  • Okonomiyaki sauce (found in most asian stores, it has a sweet and savory flavor almost like a barbeque/sweet and sour sauce. Brand name I use: Otafuku)
  • Japanese Mayonnaise (less flavorful than american mayonnaise, which can be found in most asian stores as well. Brand name I use: Kewpie)
  • Bonito Flakes (dried smokey fish flakes to be sprinkled on top)
  • Nori (nori comes in all shapes and sizes, pick one that can be used almost like spice- strips, shavings, you name it.)

Directions
  1. Mix flour with water in a medium to large bowl.
  2. Beat eggs and add to batter along with the cooked meat and raw cabbage. You will be left with a cabbage coated in batter consistency.
  3. Heat the oil on a large skillet or hot plate.
  4. Scoop enough batter to make a single serving okonomiyaki (aprox. 6" across and 1/2" thick)
  5. Cook on both sides until golden brown (about 5 minutes). Partially cover to ensure the cabbage cooks through but leave enough room so steam can escape and the okonomiyaki can't brown.
  6. Transfer to serving plate and spread okonomiaki sauce and mayo on the top and sprinkle the bonito and nori on top.

Wow! I think I ate this when I was in Tokyo! They cooked it right at our table. It was ten years ago and I don't remember the name of it, but it sure seems like the same thing! Very good.
