The recipe is based on the pizza principle: everything that is currently in the refrigerator can become part of the pancakes. There are two traditional cooking options. The first is when a pancake made of thin tempura dough is baked separately, and then everything else is dumped on it (this is the Hiroshima and Tokyo style). The second is when chopped cabbage can be mixed into the dough, and the pancake turns out thick, like a pancake - this style is practiced in Osaka. But no matter how the relationship between the dough and cabbage develops, okonomiyaki is always decorated with curls of mayonnaise and a wiggling tuna shaving on top .
