Recipe Card

ingredients

  • 1/3 Whole Cabbage

  • 40 gram Corn
  • 80 gram all-purpose-flour
  • 2 Eggs
  • 150 gram Pork Belly
  • 100 milliliter Water
  • Salt, Pepper, Sugar, Sesame Oil

Method

Preparation and Cutting

  • Step 1

    Cut the pork into thin slices (~3 to 5mm). Marinate it with salt, pepper and sesame oil for ~15 minutes.

  • Step 2

    Meanwhile, shred the cabbage and carrot. Mix them together with the corn. Dissolve the hondashi into 100ml of water. Let it cools. * You can be creative here. Add in your favorite vegetable here.

  • Step 3

    Mix the flour, salt and sugar. Then, mix in the liquid together with vegetables in (2).

  • Step 4

    Separate the batter into 2 portions and add in an egg into each portion.

  • Step 5

    Grill the pork belly until it is half done. Set aside for later use.

Cooking Procedure

  • Step 1

    Heat the pan. Make sure that it is hot before you start. Pour some oil into the pan. * You can also use the leftover oil from your grilled pork belly here.

  • Step 2

    Then, spread the batter and shape it into round. I had it ~3/4 inch tall. *Since I was using cast-iron, it retains the heat. I turned to medium heat after 30s the batter is in.

  • Step 3

    When the batter is half set (~3minutes), top it with okonomiyaki with the pork belly. Cover it for ~3 minutes.

  • Step 4

    When the base is nicely brown and the batter is ~90% cooked, FLIP it.

  • Step 5

    Grill your okonomiyaki for another 3 minutes until it is brown.

  • Step 6

    It is now ready to serve with okonomiyaki sauce and Mayonnaise. Please be generous about this!!
