Cut the meat, vegetables (such as mushrooms, asparagus, courgettes) and fish into bitesize pieces Except the cabbage, add them to the pan and mix.

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!
