Best Fluffy OKONOMIYAKI Recipe – Easy Cooking At Home

Have you tasted Okonomiyaki?

It’s sometimes described as Japanese pancake or Japanese pizza.
The shape is kind of pancake but its taste differs completely.

The sauce on top of Okonomiyaki is very unique and super delicious.
It also amazingly matches with mayonnaise. (I hope you can try Japanese mayonnaise though.)

Anyway please try this BEST fluffy Okonomiyaki once. It’s so easy to make at home.

I use less flour than normal recipe, so it’s actually healthier!
Also if you are on diet of gluten free, you can use rice flour instead of flour. Since I use only 2 Tbsp of flour for this menu, the taste won’t be change so much even though you use substitute.
