Okonomiyaki

I actually took a bit of time off this holiday which gave me time to play around with recipes as well as trying new things out.

One of the items I've been meaning to try for a while is making Okonomiyaki.
I know you can easily buy the powder mix and mix it in but I really didn't want to do that.
I was determined to make it from scratch. So after some searching, I found this recipe and decided to try.

It was pretty easy to make surprisingly.
I was able to get the Nagaimo from my local Chinese supermarket.
And it turns out it grates easily.
I thought I would be dealing with a potato since it is a mountain potato. But it turns out it grates even easier then cheese.

Seeing how all the work to making Okonomiyaki comes from shredding of cabbage and other things you want to add in it. It seems like making this from scratch vs a mix is honestly  not that much more work and totally worth it.

Give the recipe a try. So yummy and really reminds me of what I had in Kyoto :)
