Seafood Okonomiyaki


This is a healthy, simple and quick recipe. *Healthy without the mayonnaise*
You can always change the ingredient according to your own preference to make okonomiyaki. For me I choose the seafood, prawns and salmon fish.

To me I think the sauce play an important role as well. If without the Okonomiyaki Sauce and mayonnaise, the whole okononiyaki taste quite plain. I looking for a bottle of teriyaki sauce but it seem hard to find it. The sauce I make taste wierd. I didn't follow the original recipe to make the teriyaki sauce because it required the mirin and sake which I know I won't be able to finish the whole bottle before the expiry date and that why I didn't buy it.


I feel so bloated after finish the whole okonomiyaki. Remember to buy fresh prawn and salmon, fresh prawn give a crunchy bite texture to it. Hope u like it too.

*Serving portion 1

  • 50gm flour

Method:
  1. Cook the salmon and prawn in a pot of hot water or steam it. *I suggest not to full cook but medium rare*

  3. In another bowl combine the dashi & water together and stir until dissolve.
