Kcal
- 150g (1 cup) gluten-free all-purpose flour
- 160ml (2/3 cup) water
- 2 large eggs
- 200g (2 cups) shredded cabbage
- 50g (1/4 cup) finely chopped green onions
- 100g (1/2 cup) cooked and chopped halal chicken breast
- 1 tbsp vegetable oil
- 3 tbsp gluten-free soy sauce
- 2 tbsp gluten-free Worcestershire sauce
- 1 tbsp ketchup
- 2 tbsp mayonnaise
- 2 tbsp bonito flakes (optional)
- Additional chopped green onions
- Prepare the Batter: In a large bowl, gently mix the gluten-free flour and water until smooth, feeling the texture between your fingers. Add the eggs and whisk with care, as if you were tending to a garden. Stir in the cabbage, green onions, and halal chicken, ensuring each piece is lovingly coated.
- Cook the Okonomiyaki: Heat the oil in a non-stick frying pan over medium heat, listening for the gentle sizzle that invites you to pour half the batter into the pan. Shape it into a round pancake, about 1.5cm (0.6 inches) thick, and let it cook for about 5 minutes. The aroma will tell you when the bottom is golden. With a careful hand, flip it over and cook the other side for another 5 minutes. Repeat with the remaining batter, treating each piece with the same attention.
- Make the Sauce: In a small bowl, blend the gluten-free soy sauce, Worcestershire sauce, and ketchup. Stir until the flavors meld into a harmonious balance, like a well-rehearsed symphony.
- Assemble and Serve: Place the okonomiyaki on a serving plate. Drizzle with the sauce and mayonnaise, weaving patterns like a painter on canvas. Top with bonito flakes, watching them dance with life, and sprinkle extra green onions for a touch of freshness. Serve hot, and enjoy the layers of flavor and texture, a testament to your patience and care.
