Equipment

  • Frying pan, 21 cm

Ingredients
  

  • ⅛ Cabbage, about 70g
  • 1 bag Seafood Mix, about 150g
  • Oil, as needed for cooking
  • 1 Egg
  • 1 tsp Kombu Dashi Powder, about 5g
  • A little Salt
  • 2 Tbsp Water
  • 5 Tbsp Wheat Flour
  • Sauce (e.g., okonomiyaki sauce), mayonnaise, and aonori (green seaweed), for toppings

Instructions
 

  1. Prep Cabbage: Shred the cabbage finely.
  2. Cook Seafood Mix: Heat a little oil in a frying pan over medium heat, add the seafood mix, and stir-fry until cooked through.
  3. Prepare the Batter: Beat the eggs in a large mixing bowl. Add salt, kombu dashi powder, water, and flour, and mix well until smooth. Add the shredded cabbage and cooked seafood to the batter and mix until well combined.
  4. Cook the Pancake: Heat oil in a frying pan over medium heat. Pour the batter into the pan, and cook for about 2 minutes on one side until slightly crispy. Flip the pancake and cook the other side until it's cooked through.
  5. Serve: Transfer to a plate and drizzle with sauce and mayonnaise. Sprinkle with aonori for garnish.

Notes

  • Storage: Wrap each piece tightly and store them in the refrigerator. Enjoy within two days. When ready to eat, warm it up in the microwave.
  • Remove excess moisture from the seafood mix before adding it to the batter.
  • Cook the pancake immediately after preparing the batter.  Mixing the batter and letting it sit can cause water to release from the cabbage, resulting in a soggy pancake.
  • Just like regular pancakes, adding baking powder to the batter will make it fluffy and puffy.
