Ingredients

  • •2 cups shredded cabbage
  • •1 cup all-purpose flour
  • •3/4 cup water
  • •2 eggs
  • •2 slices bacon, chopped
  • •1/4 cup pickled ginger
  • •3 tablespoons okonomiyaki sauce
  • •2 tablespoons mayonnaise
  • •1 teaspoon bonito flakes
  • •2 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • •1/2 teaspoon salt

Directions

  1. 1Mix flour, water, and eggs in a bowl to create batter, then fold in shredded cabbage, bacon, and pickled ginger.
  2. 2Heat oil in a skillet over medium-high heat and pour the batter into a round pancake shape, about 1/2 inch thick.
  3. 3Cook for 5-6 minutes until the bottom is golden brown, then carefully flip and cook the other side for another 5 minutes.
  4. 4Transfer to a plate and drizzle with okonomiyaki sauce in a crisscross pattern, then add mayo on top.
  5. 5Sprinkle with bonito flakes, which will curl from the heat, and serve immediately.

💡 Keep the cabbage fairly dry after washing; excess water thins the okonomiyaki batter and makes the pancake harder to crisp.
