Servings: 6 people
Calories: 433kcal
Ingredients
- 220 g plain flour
- ¼ teaspoon baking powder
- ¼ tsp sugar
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- 4 eggs
- 100 ml chicken stock
- ½ cabbage chopped into ½ pieces
- ½ red onion finely sliced
- 1 garlic clove minced
- 100 g grated cheese mozzarella and or cheddar
- 8 streaky bacon rashers
For the toppings
- 2 tablespoon okonomiyaki sauce or bbq or brown sauce
- 2 tablespoon mayonnaise drizzled
- 2 spring onions finely sliced
- ½ tablespoon sesame seeds
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 210C fan / 430F. In a large bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt with a whisk. Then, add in the eggs followed by the chicken stock. Whisk until a smooth thick-ish batter has formed.
- Next up, add your chopped cabbage, sliced onion, minced garlic, and grated cheese into the bowl. Mix with a spatula until the ingredients are fully coated and well combined. You want the batter to be chunky and reasonably thick...not at all runny.
- Get your tray and drizzle with sesame oil. Place in the oven for 3 minutes until hot. Remove from the oven and transfer the batter into the tray and evenly spread it and flatten the okomiyaki batter. Top with the streaky bacon evenly and place in the oven for 20 minutes.
- Once the bacon is cooked and slightly crispy around the edges, remove from the oven and top with the brown sauce (spread it all over the okonomiyaki), then drizzle over the mayonnaise, sprinkle with spring onions, sesame seeds, and then serve up and enjoy!

Storage: Leave the okonomiyaki traybake to cool, then place in an airtight container and into the fridge for up to 3 days.
Freezing: you can totally freeze this. It may change in texture, slightly, but will still taste delicious nonetheless. Once cooled, place in an airtight container (don't forget to label with contents and the date), and into the freezer. Leave to defrost/thaw in the fridge overnight before reheating.
Reheating: you can either reheat in the microwave until piping hot, or place it into the oven at 180c / 350F for 15 minutes until piping hot.
