Add to favorites

Okonomiyaki is a large cabbage pancake that the Japanese often make at home. This dish is sometimes called Japanese pizza because of its ease of preparation and the variety of possible fillings. Egg whites and cabbage are used as a base, and then you can add anything you like: ham, seafood, and vegetables. This is reflected in the name of the dish, which consists of two parts: "okonomi" - "what you like" or "what you want", and "yaki" - this is how fried dishes are called in Japanese . Traditionally, okonomiyaki is decorated with mayonnaise and okonomiyaki sauce and sprinkled with tuna shavings: from the streams of hot air coming from the okonomiyaki, it begins to move as if alive.
