Self raising flour		200g
Granulated sugar		60g

Egg		1
Melted butter		40g
Milk		200ml

Method

Cook

10min

Make the batter:put all the ingredients into a large bowl in order (except the azuki beans) and mix well. Keep in the fridge for 30 minutes.

Heat up the taiyaki grill on medium heat then turn it down to low. Pour in 1.5 tbsp batter from Step 1 into each mould. Add 1 tbsp azuki beans on top of each mould.

Pour over 1 tbsp batter to cover the azuki beans. Close the lid and cook for 2 minutes.

Turn the grill over and cook for another 2-3 minutes, opening the grill every now and then to check for colour. It's cooked when it's nicely browned.

This is the taiyaki grill, from Japan, I bought it on Amazon, it's actually very useful for making other fish shaped recipes like fishcakes.

This is the tinned sweet azuki beans, available at Japanese foodstores in London. It's handy to keep a tin in the cupboard.
