This is one of the products that I got from the "try the World" box. I thought it would be special if I try to make it for Father's Day. My husband has been to Japan quite a few times when he was still in the Navy so he is used to eating Japanese food. This okonomiyaki kit is very easy to prepare. I like the fact that the instruction is available in four langues including English, which is awesome.
Okonomiyaki i-s a popular dish in Japan. It is an omelette-like pancake made with a variety of savory toppings. The kit includes the basic ingredients needed to make the savory pancakes. The pink bag is the yum powder, the yellow bag is the tempura crisps, green bag is the seaweed.
How to mix the batter:- Add 3/4 cup of water to a large bowl follwed by the yamn powder and mix until dissolved. Add the okonomiyaki batter mix and blend until dissolved.
I did not have head cabbage in the fridge so I just picked some fresh kale from the garden and chopped it finely. I think I had a cup of kale in there. I added two eggs to the batter and then added the kale and the the tenka or the tempura crisps.
I cooked one side of the bacon to make sure that the one I will put on top of the omelette is already cooked.The batter makes two pancake/omelette. You can use an electric griddle or just an ordinary frying pan. Coat the pan with olive oil in low heat and then pour half of the batter. Soread it into a circular shape.
Wait till it is golden brown and then put the bacon on top.
Slowly flip the pancake.
When both of the pancake is done, sprinkle the green seaweed and you can add hot sauce or any kind of sauce as well. I used sriracha on mine.
I cut each pancake in four slices and served it with pineapples slices and takaokaya or seaweed.
The kids thought it was weird to have pancake tha is savory but they like it because of the bacon in it, lol.The kale was perfect for this recipe. Hubby thought it was really good. He gave it two thumbs up.

I love Okonomiyaki. It's so savory and tastes even better with Japanese mayo and Bonito flakes.
Yum! We're kosher, so I'll have to use turkey bacon, but yeah... YUM!
