Ingredients
  

Batter Base
  • 2 cups shredded cabbage fresh for best texture
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup cold dashi stock homemade or instant
  • 2 tbsp soy sauce
Fillings & Toppings
  • green onions thinly sliced
  • bonito flakes for authentic finish
  • okonomiyaki sauce for drizzling
  • pickled ginger optional, for brightness
Optional Variations
  • shrimp or squid for seafood variation
  • kimchi for spicy kick
  • cheese melted inside for creamy texture
  • mushrooms shiitake, enoki, or button

Equipment

  • Flat Pan or Griddle
  • Mixing bowl
  • Whisk
  • Two Spatulas

Method
 

  1. 1. In a large bowl, whisk all-purpose flour with cold dashi stock until smooth and pourable. Add soy sauce and combine well.
  2. 2. Fold in shredded cabbage, green onions, and any chosen fillings like shrimp or mushrooms. Mix gently to avoid overworking the batter.
  3. 3. Heat a flat pan or griddle over medium-high heat. Lightly oil the surface until it shimmers.
  4. 4. Spoon the batter onto the pan, spreading thinly. Let it cook undisturbed for 4–5 minutes until edges are crispy and the center is set but gooey.
  5. 5. Use two spatulas to chop, scrape, or flip the batter for authentic Monjayaki texture. Continue cooking until desired consistency is reached.
  6. 6. Drizzle with okonomiyaki sauce and Japanese mayonnaise if desired. Top with bonito flakes, green onions, and pickled ginger. Serve immediately and enjoy!

Notes

Chef Luna says: Always prep ingredients before you start for stress-free cooking. Customize freely with seafood, kimchi, or cheese. Bonito flakes are essential for authentic smoky flavor!
