OKONOMIYAKI baked in a frying pan.
A fluffy and thick OKONOMIYAKI. A frying pan is actually recommended to cook it like a specialty restaurant. This time, I cooked each piece in a frying pan (8 inches in diameter). It’s easy to shape and the thickness comes out well. As for the toppings, please use Japanese mayonnaise!
Popular street food from Osaka,Japan, OKONOMIYAKI is a savory version of Japanese pancake, made with flour, eggs, shredded cabbage, and your choice of protein, and topped with a variety of condiments.
