Keto Okonomiyaki Recipe [Japanese Savory Pancake]

What is okonomiyaki? Well, it’s a deliciously prepared savory pancake that gets stuffed with meat and shredded cabbage. As if that’s not enough, it’s slathered in tangy BBQ sauce and mayo before finally dusted with powdered seaweed and bonito flakes. When the server brings the plate to your table the bonito dances across on top and your friends go, “Wow!” It’s a really special experience.
That’s the simple version anyway, because Japan has hundreds of different types of okonomiyaki. The name for this dish roughly translates to “how you like it.” So feel free to change this dish to suit your tastes. Different meat? Runny egg? Cheese? As you wish!
I’ve got a little confession to make…
Okonomiyaki is my thing. I love going to all the little family run shops in San Francisco’s Japantown and trying as many different variations as I can find. Well, I used to anyway - because okonomiyaki is definitely not keto friendly.
Until today.
Yes, this is not traditional okonomiyaki. There will be differences in the batter and sauces. However, it’s pretty close! When I took my first bite I felt instantly transported back to my favorite eatery. Now I know I truly don’t have to go without one of my favorite foods!

Could this work cooked in a waffle maker?

[@RuledMe]

It would cook in a waffle maker, yes. Not sure it would be the same texture as a pancake, though. If you do try it, let me know how it goes!

[@JasonJacksonJames]

rice vinegar is keto?

[@RuledMe]

Yes, you just have to look at the one you're purchasing. There is seasoned rice vinegar which has lots of sugar added. You will want unseasoned rice vinegar.

[@JasonJacksonJames]

@@RuledMe how can it be keto if rice isn't keto?

[@RuledMe]

@@JasonJacksonJames Because vinegar is a byproduct of fermentation. The yeast feeds on the sugar. Similar thing to vodka and it being made from potatoes 👍

[@JasonJacksonJames]

@@RuledMe I see, thank you

[@Zastrutzki]

BBQ sauce doesn't seem all that Japanese to me. Will give it a go, though, looks delish.

[@RuledMe]

Typically they will use okonomiyaki sauce, which is ketchup, worcestershire sauce, oyster sauce, and a few other ingredients. The bbq sauce will bring the deeper sweet flavor without adding a ton of carbs :)

[@romylondon2307]

I am Japanese… Ummm cream cheese? Definitely No! for BBQ sauce! Okonomiyaki ! Vital ingredients are Bonito stock, loads of cabbage and okonomiyaki sauce (Otafuku sauce)
There are much better versions of Keto Okomoniyaki recipes. I usually use Tofu and couple eggs for base…

[@RuledMe]

Cream cheese helps form the base of the batter since we cannot use flour. Okonomiyaki sauce typically uses ketchup, Worcestershire, and oyster sauce. Low-carb BBQ sauce is made from ketchup as well, so it brings a similar deeper sweet flavor without adding a bunch of carbs from the oyster sauce.
If you don't like the look of it, you don't have to make it 👍

[@malcontent_1]

@@RuledMe I think the term "okonomi" just means _the things you like_ ...so carry on

[@mentaritravel1004]

You're being disrespectful and mean - if you don't like it, skip it.
