Japanese Okonomiyaki

Tips

  • Experiment with fillings: Feel free to get creative with the fillings you use in your Okonomiyaki. Try different meats, seafood, or vegetables to find your favorite combination.
  • Use a non-stick pan: To ensure that your Okonomiyaki doesn’t stick to the pan, make sure to use a well-seasoned non-stick pan or griddle.
  • Don’t overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter can result in a tough and chewy texture, so make sure to mix it just enough to combine the ingredients.
  • Use proper spatula: A flat spatula works best for flipping the Okonomiyaki and preventing it from breaking apart.
  • Keep the heat low: Cooking Okonomiyaki at a low heat allows the ingredients to cook evenly and the batter to set properly.
  • Top it off: Don’t forget to top your Okonomiyaki with your favorite condiments, like soy sauce, mayonnaise, and dried seaweed, for added flavor and texture.
  • Serve hot: Okonomiyaki is best enjoyed hot, so make sure to serve it immediately after cooking for maximum enjoyment.
