Okonomiyaki with Ham Recipe

How to make Okonomiyaki with Ham

Method:

  1. Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large, non-stick frying pan (approximately 23cm base). Add ham and cook, stirring occasionally, for 5 minutes or until lightly browned. Set aside to cool. Clean out pan. 
  2. Place flour, eggs, iced water, kecap manis and sesame oil into a large bowl. Whisk until a smooth batter forms. Stir in cabbage, carrot, green onions and cooled ham. Stand for 5 minutes.
  3. Heat 1 tablespoon of the remaining vegetable oil in a frying pan over medium-high heat. Add half of the cabbage batter to the pan, forming a large pancake. Cook for 4-5 minutes or until golden brown, carefully flip and cook for a further 4-5 minutes or until cooked through. 
  4. Transfer to a plate and cover with foil to keep warm. Repeat using remaining vegetable oil and batter, to make 2 pancakes.
  5. Place pancakes on serving plates. Drizzle with mayonnaise and extra kecap manis. Scatter with micro herbs and black sesame seeds then serve immediately.
