Easy Okonomiyaki Recipe

How to make Osaka Style Okonomiyaki (お好み焼き), a delicious savory pancake containing pork and cabbage, topped with homemade okonomiyaki sauce, mayonnaise, aonori and bonito flakes. Everything is from scratch, no okonomiyaki flour required for this recipe!

Authentic Osaka Style Okonomiyaki (Japanese Savory Pancake)

cake flour (see note)

dashi stock (see how to make your own dashi from scratch stock here)

tsp milk

tsp tsuyu sauce

eggs

(2 cups) cabbage

tbsp tenkasu (tempura bits) optional

tsp benishoga (pickled ginger) optional

(3-4 oz) Pork belly

vegetable oil

tbsp mayonnaise

tbsp katsuobushi bonito flake (optional)

parsley

tbsp Worcester sauce

oyster sauce

tbsp ketchup

tbsp honey

soy sauce

Mix 1 tbsp Worcester sauce, 1 tbsp oyster sauce, 2 tbsp ketchup, 1 tbsp honey and 1 tsp soy sauce in a small bowl.

Okonomiyaki Sauce

Add 75ml dashi, 1 tsp milk, 1 tsp tsuyu sauce and 1 egg to the bowl, mix well until there are no lumps. (I recommend a whisk.)

Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and place it in the fridge for 30 minutes.

Cut the cabbage into into small rough pieces.

In a separate bowl, add half of the batter, then half of the cabbage with 1 tbsp tenkasu, 1 tsp benishoga and 1 egg. Mix well. (If you want to add other ingredients such as cheese, kimchi, mochi etc add them here. See in post for more ideas.)

Heat up the frying pan on medium-high and pour in approx 1/2 tbsp of vegetable oil.

Once it's hot, add the mixture to the center of the frying pan.

Lay the slices of pork belly over the top of the wet mixture.

Fry the okonomiyaki until the bottom starts to become brown and crispy, then carefully flip it over.

Place a lid on the pan and cook for about 5 minutes on a medium-low heat.

Pierce the middle with a toothpick to make sure it's cooked. If the toothpick doesn't come out clean, it's not quite ready and you need to continue to cook on a low heat, checking regularly.

Once it's cooked through, flip it over again and pour half of the sauce on top of the okonomiyaki and use a pastry brush or spoon to spread it evenly over the top. You can do this while it's still in the pan.

Repeat the process again from step 5 with the remaining ingredients. (Tip: You can eat the first one while the second one is cooking.)
