Japanese pancakes - Okono means Big Like and Tori means to cook something over a flame.
So "cooking a favorite" They are made with the favorite combination of ingredients by whoever is cooking them. One of the rare meals without rice.
Happens to be the first Japanese food he cooked for me and I was surprised that I liked it!
Prepare veggies:
1 half cabbage, chopped
5 large carrots, shredded
1/2 - 1 large yellow onion, chopped
Set aside on cutting board
If adding meat, cook 3-5 min on high in skillet with some sesame oil:
1/2 - 1 lb boneless pork or turkey, cubed (can use already cooked meat)
Set aside.
In separate large bowl, make runny batter of:
2 c flour
2 c water
2 eggs
Mix well then add in veggie mix and meat, if using. Combine well.
Pour 1/2 cup batter onto hot griddle, flatten as much as possible.
Cook like a pancake, flipping cake onto other side when golden on bottom side.
Serve with Bulldog Fruit and Vegetable Sauce (Asian market) and mayo spread atop.
Or like Bri, eat with ketchup and mayo spread on top.
Be authentic by sprinkling with bonito flakes and watch them wiggle!
