Okonomiyaki

Okonomiyaki is a savoury pancake that is a popular street food from Osaka, Japan. It’s a favourite brunch for all who’ve tried it. You’ll absolutely love this vegan version!

Ingredients

Serves: 2   

TO SERVE

Method

  1. Place the chickpea flour and water into a large bowl and mix until smooth. Add the cabbage, carrot, onion, ginger, dashi stock powder, and salt, then mix until well combined. Set aside to rest.
  2. Heat the oil in a non-stick frying pan on medium heat.
  3. Place half the mixture into the frying pan and spread it out until it covers the pan. Leave a little space around the edges to make it easier when it’s time to flip. Cook for 3–4 minutes or until golden. Gently flip and cook the remaining side for 2 minutes. Repeat for the remaining mixture.
  4. Place each pancake on a plate to serve. Top with a drizzle of vegan mayonnaise and sprinkle of spring onions and edible flowers. Enjoy!

TIP: We used Spiral Foods kombu shiitake dashi.
