Steps to make My Family's Go-to Recipe for Okonomiyaki:
- Mix the batter ingredients marked with a ●. Mix just the flour and dashi stock first, and then it'll be easier to add other ingredients. Sakura shrimp and squid (not listed) make good additions to the batter too.
- Toss about one and a half handfuls of the cabbage and a ladle full of the batter into a bowl, and mix well. Pour the mixture onto a pre-heated electric griddle, and spread it evenly into a thick circle.
- The batter will not flow out around the mound of cabbage. You might be worried that there isn't enough batter, but it's fine. The only concern here would be whether there's enough cabbage.
- Top this with as much sliced pork belly as you like. Use thin slices and line them up so that there's no space in between! Or, at least that's how my family likes it.
- When the bottom has browned, flip the patty over. Make absolutely sure not to press or smash the patty! You'll have to be content with just adjusting the shape a little.
- After a bit, it's easier to use 2 spatulas to flip the patty over again.
- Brush the top with your preferred okonomiyaki sauce, top with aonori and katsuobushi (bonito flakes), and enjoy.
- This time, the okonomiyaki was cooked by my husband, who usually doesn't cook it. The shape came out poorly, but see! Even an amateur was able to make this. It didn't fall apart.
Okonomiyaki (お好み焼き o-konomi-yaki) is the ultra popular Japanese style savoury pancake, aka Japanese Pizza! Okonomi translates to "as you like" and yaki to "grilled" giving you "grilled as you like" and as the name indicates, you can make these with your favourite filling ad toppings! I'm planning to prepare these for Mother's Day using your recipes. Can I make Takoyaki and Okonomiyaki in advance, so we can use the griddle for Teppanyaki or am I being too ambitious? I made it for dinner tonight for my partner and I.
