Lightly mix in the shredded cabbage.

Heat oil in a skillet until very hot, then pour in the batter. Cover and bake for 6 to 7 minutes on medium heat until you hear it start to squeak.

Turn over the pancake. Keep it uncovered and cook on high heat for 6 minutes.

It's ready! Drizzle over with the sauces you fancy and garnish with chopped spring onions and cheese. Enjoy!

Tips & Note

This okonomiyaki is jam-packed with yam potatoes and the outside has a lovely crispy finish because of the potato starch and baking powder. It's important to keep the frying pan hot. To make a nice plump okonomiyaki, shred the cabbage really finely and mix lightly. It's so delicious with ponzu sauce on top!
