Ingredients
  

Batter

  • ¾ cup all-purpose flour
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ½ cup chicken broth or water
  • 4 eggs
  • 3 cups finely shredded cabbage
  • 2 green onions, finely chopped
  • 4 slices bacon, cooked and crumbled
  • ¼ cup canola oil

Toppings

  • 2 cups bean sprouts

Instructions
 

Preparation

  • In a large bowl, mix flour and salt. In another bowl, whisk broth with eggs, then combine both mixtures. Stir in cabbage, green onions, and bacon.
  • In a non-stick skillet, heat 1 tablespoon oil over medium-high; add ½ cup of the batter to the skillet, pressing gently with a spatula to flatten. Cook for 3-4 minutes until the bottom is golden; flip and cook for another 3-4 minutes. Repeat with remaining batter, adding oil as needed.
  • Serve topped with bean sprouts, green onion, bonito flakes, pickled ginger, sesame seeds, soy sauce, Worcestershire sauce, and hot sauce.
  • Yields 6 pancakes.

Notes

If you find okonomiyaki sauce, serve it as a topping. It has a taste similar to Worcestershire sauce and can replace it. You can substitute chicken broth with low-sodium chicken broth, if desired.
