Okonomiyaki



This is actually a Japanese pancake, but changed and adjusted. The real one are using some seafood and mountain yam (also thinly sliced pork belly), but since here in my place, I can't find mountain yam and seafood are expensive (and currently I don't have any pork belly), I just make the vegetable one in my style. :)

Ingredients :
Okonomiyaki batter
3-4 eggs
1/2 carrot, thinly sliced or chopped
approx. 2 cups of sliced/chopped cabbage and leek
2 tbsp plain flour
2 tbsp self-raising flour (you can changed it into 2 more tbsp of plain flour and 1/4 tsp of baking powder)
1 tbsp cornflour
approx. 100 ml pork stock (you can just use water instead)
salt and pepper to taste

Topping Sauce
hint of honey
approx 5 tbsp salty soy sauce

mayonnaise
bbq sauce
Sushi seasoning (you can use chopped spring onion instead)

How To:
1. Sift the flour together, if you don't have sifter you can just mix it thoroughly with fork/whisk.
2. Pour the stock gradually, mix it well.
3. Mix the eggs in. See if it has reach the ideal thickness. It should be slightly less thick than pancake batter.
4. Stir together the cabbage. salt and pepper to taste (if you chopped the carrot, put it inside together to.)
5. Heat the frying pan, spread with some oil. (if you sliced the carrot, stir fry the carrot for a while until they're half-cooked)
6. Pour the okonomiyaki batter to the frying pan, cook it in high heat until golden brown.
7. Flip it over, cook in medium heat while covering it with lid. Cook until golden brown.
8. While waiting fr the Okonomiyaki to be cooked, mix together honey and soy sauce in small bowl.
9. Put the okonomiyaki to large flat plate, spread with the soy sauce mixture.
10. Finish with mayonnaise and bbq sauce. and garnish with sushi seasoning (which contains sesame seeds and crumbed nori, I bought in supermarket)
