To get started with this recipe, we must first prepare a few components. You can have Okonomiyaki using 25 ingredients and 9 steps. Here is how you cook that.

I had been asking myself this question: is Japan's Okonomiyaki a pizza? I mean, does a pan-fried batter counted as a dough? It definitely has sauce and toppings. But can Kewpie mayo qualifies as a cheese? Pizza is dough, sauce and cheese right? So technically, this is a pizza, right? Lol! I watched too much "Is it really dough" on YouTube. I love this "Japanese pizza". I hardly find any great okonomiyaki in Singapore tho, sadly. There are actually 2 types of okonomiyaki; the Osaka's and the Hiroshima's version. The one which I am making today is the Osaka's version. Hiroshima's version is a lot "heavier" as it contains added noodles and lots of vegetables and other toppings. Perhaps I will try to make that version in the future. It is really difficult to decide which is my favorite; each version has it's own uniqueness. This is rather a simple and easy dish to make, tho, flipping the okonomiyaki really do takes some practice, especially when I am making 8 inch big okonomiyaki. But it all comes together in the end. Cos after all, mesmerizing over how the bonito flakes dance is the price. Don't you agree? Anyway, I was so glad the other day when I spotted chicken bacon in my local supermarket. Chicken bacon does exist! I do not consume pork, so this is intriguing for me. You can however, use a high quality pork bacon. In closing, is this a pizza? I will leave it to you to decide and I really do hope you give this recipe a try.

Steps to make to make Okonomiyaki

  1. Prepare batter. In a large bowl, add flour, salt, sugar and baking powder. Mix until well combined. Add in yam and incorporated well. The mixture should comes together like a dough.
  2. Gradually add in dashi while still mixing. Mix until well combine making sure no large lumps. *You can pass the batter thru' a fine sieve.* Cover with cling film and chill in the fridge for at least 1 hr.
  3. While waiting for the batter to set, prepare the sauce. In a small bowl, combine everything together. Set aside in the fridge until ready to use. After 1 hr, prep the batter.
  4. Add in tenkasu, ginger and eggs. *If you can't find tenkasu, you can simply just deep fried up some batter. Tenkasu is just tempura scraps or leftover.* Mix until well combined. Lastly fold in the cabbage and Shichimi Togarashi until fully incorporated.
  5. Assemble the okonomiyaki. In a skillet over medium heat, drizzle some oil. Once the oil is heated up, add in the batter. I am making 8 inch okonomiyaki in which the batter will fill up my skillet.
  6. You can make smaller ones by dividing the batter into 4 equal portions. Gently shape the batter into a round disc. Add strips of bacon on top of the batter.
  7. Cover the skillet and cook for 5 mins. Once bottom is lightly charred, confidently flip the batter. It is okay if it is messy. Use a spatula to coax into a round disc again. Cover and cook for another 5 mins.
  8. Once bottom is lightly charred, flip onto serving plate. Brush the sauce onto the okonomiyaki. Sprinkle nori flakes over the top. I dislike my okonomiyaki with lots of mayo, so I just dollops them over the top.
  9. If you prefer, you can squeeze mayo all over the top in a zig-zag motion. Lastly, sprinkle some bonito flakes and scallions over the top. Repeat the steps for the remaining okonomiyaki. Serve immediately and enjoy how the bonito flakes dance.
