  • 1/2 c. dashi (bonito stock) or possibly broth
  •     Oil as needed
  • 4 tsp dry bonito flakes (katsuobushi)
  • 4 c. minced cabbage
  • 1/4 c. deep-fried tempura batter crumbs (tenkasu)
  • 1/4 c. minced green onions
  • 1/4 c. bean sprouts
  • 12 x thin slices pork see * Note
  • 4 c. cooked yakisoba (stir-fry) noodles
  •     Okonomiyaki Sauce (see recipe)
  • 4 x Large eggs
  • 4 tsp dry green seaweed flakes (aonori)

Directions

  1. * Note: Often labeled sukiyaki style in Japanese markets.
  2. Thoroughly mix water, flour and dashi in large bowl to make smooth batter. Heat lightly oiled griddle or possibly skillet over low to medium heat.
  3. Pour 1/3 c. batter onto warm griddle. Using ladle or possibly spoon, spread batter in circle to create thin pancake about 7 inches across. Cook till lightly set, 1 to 2 min.
  4. Sprinkle 1 tsp. katsuobushi flakes over pancake. Next place 1 c. minced cabbage, 1 Tbsp. tenkasu, 1 Tbsp. green onions and 1 Tbsp. bean sprouts atop pancake. On top of this lay 3 slices pork, forming a sort of cover.
  5. Drizzle 2 Tbsp. batter over top of pork. Cook, covered, till top is lightly set, 2 to 3 min. Don't allow pancake to burn.
  6. Using 2 spatulas, flip pancake and press top lightly to flatten slightly. Cook till pork is cooked through, about 5 to 7 min more.
  7. Meanwhile, lightly saute/fry noodles on side of skillet or possibly griddle in 1 Tbsp. Okonomiyaki Sauce. Form noodles into flat circle about size of pancake. Lift okonomiyaki and place atop noodles. Don't flip. Again, press down lightly with spatula.
  8. On side of skillet or possibly griddle, fry 1 egg, spreading yolk to create egg pancake about 7 inches across. Lift okonomiyaki and noodles and place atop egg. Cook 1 to 2 min more. Flip entire pancake.
  9. Squeeze Okonomiyaki Sauce generously over top, then sprinkle with 1 tsp. aonori. Using spatulas, cut okonomiyaki into 4 pcs. You may need to use both spatulas to pull pcs apart. Serve immediately. Repeat till all batter is used.
  10. This recipe yields 4 okonomiyaki.
