You nailed it!!! That's exactly how we cook Okonomiyaki in Japan🇯🇵!!!!Sauce you used is the most famous one in Japan called "Otafuku sauce." 日本の皆さん。彼は本物ですね！！
お好み焼き (Okonomiyaki) roughly translates to "how you like it grilled" or "whatever you want grilled", so your emphasis of putting whatever you want in is very in spirit. Looks great, おいしい！
Really love these type of cooking videos where it's just chill and not so much of the usual loud voice and over exaggerated actions handling the ingredients that homemade cooks do in their contents.
My missus makes this all the time. Some cheats to make it even easier for home cook but still get max flavour Just get pre made okonomiyaki flour from a japanese/asian grocery - there's a few companies, I like the one with the red label best Dice up some British Butcher Co Smoked Bacon and fry it up nice and crispy, add into your mix Instead of tempura you can use Panko breadcrumbs Instead of Dashi we use Miso w/ hot water We don't like pickled ginger, our toppings are bonito, the sauces, spring onion and a shake of furikake (the seaweed and white seasame seed one)
After hearing chefs in their videos say “it’s not the same without Kewpie mayo” I didn’t believe them until I bought some myself. I haven’t purchased any other mayo every since 🥲😂
It's that good huh? Best mayo I've had was uhh I forget the brand but it was an organic garlic infused mayo. I was shocked at how much better it tasted (I've never had the kewpie mayo though)
Yeah it is nice to see ‘em out in the big ol’ world. Succeeding. Independent over here, really what a great time to be alive. Can’t wait for its lessons to be over. Soon we’ll ALL be cooking like this successful Kiwi 🥝
Damn, you nailed it Andy!!! I truly have so much love and respect for you, the variety of dishes that you make, and you're such a great teacher!! Looking forward to more vids
Looks delicious, had a brilliant hiroshima style okonomiyaki in a Japanese ski resort, and I'd say despite being less popular it's my preferred way. Looking forward to the exciting new content next year.
Thank you, I've been looking for a version that has ingredients that are easier to find in NZ just made this tonight now and the recipe is great cheers.
Ate this at the last day of a trip in Japan, it was awesome. Traveled 300km (a lot for European standards) to a restaurant to relive it but it didn't taste the same. Next step is to make it myself I guess. Thanks for bringing back the memories.
Thank you chef for sharing cooking skills and recipes with us. I love your channel, watch all your videos, side effects of watching these videos, im so hungry now lol
We made this a ton in college. Got lucky with having a great Asian grocery near by. We just got the okinomiyaki flour. Used a box grater for the cabbage and honestly my preferred over shaved.
Andy, amazing job and congrats on the 2 Million subscribers. Go to an Udon shop if you want excess fried tempura. It's the value convenience play. From Canada over the pond!
Andy a classic ingredient in Okonomiyaki is Nagaimo(slimy potato) they add it to the batter after making it into oroshi, just whisk it in it adds a creamy texture. try it next time!
Awesome video mate. We were lucky enought to get to Japan for the 2019 RWC and tried both Osaka and Hiroshima versions. I did prefer the Hiroshima version but the Osaka version does seem the more home friendly version. Can't wait to give this a try at home.
Thanks for the reminder Andy. Just made this for breakfast/brunch and it was phenomenal. Didn’t have any kewpie mayo to hand but that’s ok. After all okonomi means “what you like” and yaki grilled or cooked! OISHI!
Great and quick reminder for how to knock out some Okonomiyaki, thanks! I saw a great restaurant video of a place in Japan that specializes in Osaka-style Okonomiyaki loaded with freshly-shucked oysters in place of the bacon/pork belly. May try that variant as soon as I can source some good oysters.
I'll definitely try this version of this recipe. For the okonomi sauce. You can use 2 tbsp Worcestershire sauce. 2 tbsp ketchup and 1 tsp of sugar. Same taste.
We had a friend cook this for us at an anime dinner night like a year ago and my now pregnant wife is craving it. This seems so simple so ling as I gather the ingredients I'll be cooking this real soon! Thanks chef!
My last visit to Costco, they were selling a double pack of Kewpie!!!! I bought one pack for myself and one for my brother who loves it too. There’s just some ingredients that you can’t skip or substitute. 🙌🏽
@Andy I thought the Okonomiyaki was gonna be my favourite part of this vid, but turns out the Korn Flour container was the star of the show for me 😂😂 So good mate haha....I'm not sure quite why I found it so amusing 🤷♂️ Thanks for doing this recipe though, some of my best Japan moments were with 'big beer' sitting on one of those hotplate tables getting Okonomiyaki flipped up in from of us with all the epic variations...I think a Kimchi one was my favourite 😍
I have a though that a good vegetable filler for these is the coleslaw packets that Coles sells. The packs are one of the pre-cut salad packets and contains white cabbage, red cabbage, and shredded carrot. I'd also add sliced onion. But then I generally think those coleslaw packets make good stirfry and soup vegetables as well, even the bigger packets, some of which have a pouch of dressing included which I don't use. It is the convenience of pre-cut veg.
Would love to see making of Hiroshima Style Okonomiyaki if you could be so awesome! I used to make it on the griddle when I lived in Japan near Iwakuni and actually never realized what was in it. Thanks!
Chef, I want to thank you for taking me around the world. It does look yummy. I would try this but I would have to leave the Bonito off. I think that is a fish, allergies. Now if I can only get you to Cajun country in the US and cook some jambalaya. 🙃
Looks good Andy! For a bit more traditional, I’d recommend to put grated yam to decrease amount of flour. You won’t need corn starch or baking powder :)
VERY GOOD DEFINETELY RECCOMEND IT. The only downside is the time it takes for frying. Which is still a very easy dish that can be made into lunch & dinner.
Thank you so much for this recipe Chef, it look and taste so good ! There's restaurants in Tokyo and other cities, where you can make your own Okonomiyaki while sitting at a solo table with all the ustensiles and a cooking plate. Something common in Japan but kinda unusual elsewhere !
Okonomiyaki, great as a standalone dish. Amazing with sake. Day 5 of recommending Korean noodles (Janchi-guksu) 🇰🇷 Wheat noodles, eggs, dried seaweed, various vegetables in a clear anchovy broth. Takes ~10 min with ingredients prepped
My little twist is to use wasabi flavoured mayo. Not for everyone I'm sure, but I love that extra zing. I cook vegetarian so usually mushrooms for the filling, and fried shallot instead of bonito on top. Yum!
Hey Andy, just found you and you are a legend. So easy to follow and REAL. Keep it up... I have a topic that i always struggle with and wondering if you could give advice, perhaps a video. When i make fresh tomato based sauces, they are always 'light' in flavour, not the deep rich (beefy) type flavour. How can you get that deep flavour please? Looking forward to going back and viewing your library. (Hope you haven't already explained and I've embarrassed myself)
If you don't like seafood you can substitute the Bonito and dashi by rehydrating some shitake mushrooms and using the water instead of dashi and putting the mushrooms in the pancake.
Ask # 51 Korean beef Bulgogi bowl please chef Andy. I love your channel and it’s going to be a wonderful support for me as I begin the most difficult journey of my life. Chemotherapy begins end of November. Kicking cancers a$$! 💪🏻👊🏻💪🏻👊🏻
Hello Kate, also finding joy in watching Andy Cooks videos I discovered couple months ago. Don't have any type of cancer, as far as I know, but this month reached my 30yrs of polymyositis, an autoimmune disease that progressively destroys muscle tissue. Reaching the latter this year. I wish you a brief journey with your illness that quickly knocks it on its a**!

Well done, chef! It is a bit scary turning the okonomiyaki, but you did great! We like shrimp and/or bay scallops in our okonomiyaki. Also love verrrry thin slices of Berkshire pork. (I'm in the US).
I learned a few things from this video, thanks! I love making okonomiyaki but being a vegetarian whenever I am in Japan I am afraid to order it since they always add fiah sauce or the like. Also all our Asian food shops here in north Queensland have closed but I find HP sauce approximates the right taste. I also often add cooked lentils or freekeh to the batter.
You nailed it!!!

Born in Osaka to an Okan mom, living in the US. Really appreciate this video. Will make okonomiyaki for my American/Japanese daughter tomorrow.
TH-cam is working its magic. My GF is cooking your recipe of Okonomiyaki right now and Im watching this video. What a day!
Perfect 👌
2 million!!!! Congratulations!!!! My favorite chef and favorite channel!
Really love these type of cooking videos where it's just chill and not so much of the usual loud voice and over exaggerated actions handling the ingredients that homemade cooks do in their contents.
and not titled, THE BEST MOST AWESOME EVER! . that modesty is appreciated, especially as it turned out so good.
My missus makes this all the time.
Some cheats to make it even easier for home cook but still get max flavour
Just get pre made okonomiyaki flour from a japanese/asian grocery - there's a few companies, I like the one with the red label best
Dice up some British Butcher Co Smoked Bacon and fry it up nice and crispy, add into your mix
Instead of tempura you can use Panko breadcrumbs
Instead of Dashi we use Miso w/ hot water
We don't like pickled ginger, our toppings are bonito, the sauces, spring onion and a shake of furikake (the seaweed and white seasame seed one)
After hearing chefs in their videos say “it’s not the same without Kewpie mayo” I didn’t believe them until I bought some myself. I haven’t purchased any other mayo every since 🥲😂
Kewpie mayo is that good huh? I need to try it
It's that good huh? Best mayo I've had was uhh I forget the brand but it was an organic garlic infused mayo.
I was shocked at how much better it tasted (I've never had the kewpie mayo though)
My mother in law is the same, refuses to have any other mayo now 😀
It's the bomb
Oh its so good, i made my own but i need to buy the real stuff. But mine was delicious.
WOW!! yes Japan is a must.
Nice one Chef. Top work.
Great vid!!!
I also like mine with dried tiny shrimps. Adds another layer of awesomeness

You can always use the kitchen multi tool for all your cooking needs (aluminum foil) this one of my favorite dishes
I love Okonomiyaki. If you ever get the chance to visit Kyoto, go to Chabana near Kyoto station
im so glad i found your vid cause the recipe i found just said mix the cabbage egg and bread crumbs then cook
Very authentic 👌 👏 I cook it with whole chicken because bones of chicken makes it taste much better. Great job!
Okonomiyaki, great as a standalone dish. Amazing with sake.
