Savoury pancake dish from Japan served with two sauces. Okonomiyaki sauce can be bought in specialist shops or on line if you don’t want to make your own, my version will keep in the fridge in a n airtight container for 2 weeks. A squeezey bottle for the wasabi mayo is a help with presentation or alternatively, put the mayo in a small piping bag.

Mayo Sauce

3 tbsp mayonnaise

1 tsp wasabi paste

Okonomiyaki Sauce

45 g caster sugar

4 tbsp ketchup

2 tbsp oyster sauce

3 tbsp Worcestershire sauce

Pancake

200 g cabbage, finely shredded

6 spring onion, sliced

1 tbsp red miso

2 tsp ginger, grated

3 eggs

150 g self raising flour

200 ml water

1 tbsp Vegetable oil

Furikake seasoning (optional)

Sushi ginger for garnish

Start by making the sauces. Combine the wasabi with mayonnaise, transfer to a squeezey bottle or piping bag. Combine all the ingredients for the okinomiyaki sauce and set aside.

Break the eggs into a bowl and lightly beat, add the miso and ginger and combine well. Whisk in the flour and water.  Add the cabbage and most of the spring onions, reserving a few slices for garnish and stir to combine. Set aside to rest for 15 minutes.

In a small non stick frying pan, heat the vegetable oil. Add 1/2 the mixture. Lower the heat to medium and cook for 3-4 minutes. Place a plate over the frying pan and flip the pancake onto the plate. Carefully slide it back (uncooked side down) into the pan and continue to cook for 4-5 minutes. Remove to a warm plate and repeat with the second pancake.

Using a pastry brush or spoon, coat the top of the pancake with the okinomiyaki sauce, then streak with the wasabi mayo, sprinkle reserved spring onions, as shake of furikake seasoning if using (seaweed and sesame) and a small pile of sushi ginger in the middle. Cut each pancake in half and allow your guests to help themselves.
