Okonomiyaki Sauce |
Ketchup |
3 tablespoons |
Soy sauce |
1 teaspoon |
Worcestershire sauce |
1 tablespoon |
Mix the above together |
Okonomiyaki Toppings |
Mayonnaise |
1 tablespoon |
Aonori (dried green seaweed) and dried bonito
shavings (to taste) |


Mix
together the flour, salt, and baking powder and sift. Gently mix in
the water. Next, add all the remaining ingredients and mix them together
thoroughly.
Heat the griddle
(or frying pan) and lightly oil. Spoon the okonomiyaki mixture
on the griddle and spread it into a round shape about 1.2 to 1.5 cm
thick.

When air bubbles
start to rise in the middle of the okonomiyaki, turn it over
with a spatula and fry while pressing down on it slightly until done.
Spread the sauce
over the okonomiyaki, top with mayonnaise if you like. Sprinkle
on the aonori and dried bonito. The okonomiyaki is now
ready to eat.
<Note>
For an easier way to make okonomiyaki, use ready-made
pancake mix in the place of the dry ingredients.
