pizza-flavored okonomiyaki

ingredients:

  • 7 ounces cabbage
  • 2 eggs
  • 2/3 cup all-purpose flour, plain flour or cake flour
  • 2/3 cup bonito soup stock or water
  • 2 teaspoons salad oil or olive oil
  • 6 tablespoons pizza tomato sauce
  • suitable amount of pizza cheese

step 1:

Cut the cabbage into julienne slices.

step 2:

Mix the flour and cold water or bonito soup stock.

step 3:

Add the cabbage and eggs. Mix for only 1 minute because otherwise the batter will become too hard when cooked.

step 4:

Heat a medium-size frying pan on medium heat. Add the oil. Add half of the mixture (Step 3). Arrange in a circle about 1 in. high. Bake on medium heat about 3 minutes. Don't push with a spatula because that will make the okonomiyaki hard.

step 5:

Turn with a spatula and bake the other side about 3 minutes.

step 6:

Coat with the tomato sauce and sprinkle with cheese. Cover and cook about 2 minutes.

step 7:

To make the second okonomiyaki, repeat Steps 4, 5 and 6.

comment:

Okonomiyaki is usually served with a sauce in which Worcestershire is the main ingredient, but tomato-based pizza sauce, as in this recipe, also goes well with okonomiyaki.
