I love 'em! Just had one for breakfast!

I have seen okonomiyaki only in Anime or Mangas so I don't ever eat okonomiyaki, why in Italy there aren't Japan's foods?

Haven't had a chance to try them yet, but i hear they're really good.

Yea! Love okonomiyaki... ^^ ... eat it when i can.. you can make it yourself.. it's not really hard to make ... really.. ^^

Don't now. Never eat okonomiyaki

I've seen them in anime but what exactly goes into okonomiyaki?

this is a rough recipe for those who would like to try to make okonomiyaki! ^^

INGREDIENTS:

1 cup all purpose flour
3/4 cup soup stock (dashi)
1 egg
1/4 of a small cabbage

For Toppings: Thinly sliced pork or beef,
Squid, prawns? mushrooms? bacon (whatever you like!) ^^
Katsuo-bushi (dried bonito flakes)
Sakura-ebi (dried shrimps)
Ao-nori (green seaweed)
Okonomiyaki sauce (tonkatsu sauce is ok too! ^^)
Okonomiyaki mayonnaise (normal mayonnaise is ok too!)

PREPARATION:

Cut the cabbage into very thin slices. Beat an egg in a bowl and add dashi soup stock or water in it. Add flour in the bowl and mix well. Combine sliced cabbage in the flour mixture. Fry meat/squid/shrimps (your choice of toppings) in an electric cooking pan or a frying pan. Pour the flour mixture over the toppings in the pan.(Make a couple pan cakes.) Cook a few minutes and flip pancakes and cook for a few more minutes. Put okonomiyaki sauce and mayonnaise on top of the okonomiyaki. Sprinkle katsuobushi flakes, and aonori on top.

Hope that someone can try and enjoy okonomiyaki! ^^

wow that's a very detailed recipe! i've tried them before... doesn't taste much different from like fried eggs to me.. not a very big fan of it.. but it's not bad i guess..

I actually had some in Japan. During a group trip to Japan last year, one of our stops was in Hiroshima. Needless to say, the morning sightseeing left us pretty bummed, but afterwards we had lunch at a okonomiyaki restaurant. (Apparently Hiroshima is renowned for its okonomiyaki.) There, they gave you prepared okonomiyaki that you cooked and flipped yourself on a skillet on the table, and of course you had your sauces. I ate three by myself!

I heard that okonomiyaki is considered the "Japanese pancake". Is there any truth to this?
