Osaka-style pancakes with cabbage or spring onion, drizzled in sweet okonomi sauce and topped with creamy Kewpie mayonnaise.
Ingredients:
  • 2 large zucchini, coarsely grated
  • 20.00 ml onion, grated
  • 100g plain flour
  • 4.00 gm baking powder
  • 2 eggs, lightly beaten
  • 36.40 gm olive oil
  • 45.20 gm barbecue sauce
  • Kewpie mayonnaise (see Notes)
  • 40.00 ml Japanese pickled ginger
  • Togarashi chilli powder, to serve (optional) (see Notes)
Instructions:
  • Combine zucchini and onion with 1 tsp salt in a bowl. Let it sit for 20 minutes to release liquid, then squeeze out and discard excess liquid.
  • Sift flour and baking powder into a bowl. Incorporate the egg and 2 tablespoons of cold water, season, and whisk until thick and smooth. Mix in the zucchini mixture until combined.
  • In a large frypan over medium heat, heat the oil until shimmering. Spoon tablespoonfuls of batter into the pan in batches, cooking for 3 minutes on each side until golden and fully cooked.
  • When ready to enjoy, sprinkle each pancake with 1/2 tsp barbecue sauce, streaks of mayonnaise, pickled ginger, and optional togarashi.
