These Japanese-style pancakes are loaded with cabbage, green onions and bacon for a delicious savory treat. Okinomiyaki translates to “grill as you like it,” so add whatever you like to the batter and garnish with your favourite toppings.
In large bowl, stir flour with salt. In separate bowl, whisk broth with eggs; whisk into flour mixture. Fold in cabbage, green onions, bacon, ginger and sesame seeds.
In large non-stick skillet, heat 1 tbsp (15 mL) of the oil over medium-high heat; add two ½ cup (125 mL) portions of batter to skillet, pressing down gently with spatula to flatten. Cook for 3 to 4 minutes or until bottom is browned. Flip over; cook for 5 or 6 minutes or until cooked through. Repeat with remaining batter, adding more oil to skillet as needed.
Serve with hoisin sauce and hot sauce.
