Ingredients

Instructions

  1. In a bowl, whisk together the flour, water, eggs, and soy sauce until smooth. For a lighter texture, use cake flour instead of all-purpose flour.
  2. Add chopped spinach and sliced bell peppers to the batter and mix well.
  3. Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet or griddle over medium heat.
  4. Pour half of the batter into the skillet and spread it into a round shape. Aim for about 1/4 inch thickness.
  5. Cook for 5-7 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Flip carefully to avoid breaking the pancake.
  6. Repeat with the remaining batter.
  7. Top each pancake with okonomiyaki sauce, mayonnaise, bonito flakes, and dried seaweed flakes.
  8. Serve warm. Consider adding pickled ginger on the side for a tangy complement.
