Okonomiyaki

[Ingredients] *Serves 2
Batter:
1 cup / 200 ml water
1 tbsp chicken bouillon powder
1 1/2 cups / 180g flour
1/4 head of cabbage
1 potato
2 tbsp milk
2 eggs
1/2 tsp vegetable oil for each okonomiyaki
Japanese style okonomiyaki:
50 g thin slices of pork belly
3 tbsp okonomi sauce

Aonori powdered seaweed (optional)
Dried bonito flakes (optional)
Fusion okonomiyaki:
2/3 cup uncooked small shrimp, shelled and deveined
1 tsp curry powder

[Method]
1. To make the batter: Cut the cabbage into 7mm thick strips. Grate the potato. Combine the water and chicken bouillon powder in a large bowl and mix well. Add the cabbage, grated potato, flour, milk, and eggs and mix well.

2. Heat a frying pan with 1/2 tsp vegetable oil over medium high heat. Pour in the half of batter, and spread into 2-cm thick rounds.

3. For the Japanese style Okonomiyaki: Lay the pork slices over the batter and lightly press with a fish spatula to make sure the pork sticks to the cake, and cook for 6 minutes. Cook the other side for 7 minutes.

4. Finally, flip once more and cook for 1 additional minute. Transfer to a plate and top with Okonomi sauce and mayonnaise. Sprinkle with the aonori and dried bonito flakes to taste.

5. For the fusion Okonomiyaki: Lightly mix the shrimp and curry powder into the remaining batter. Cook the cake in the same manner as the Japanese style Okonomiyaki. Transfer to a plate and top with mayonnaise, ketchup, Worcestershire sauce according to your taste.
