My Hearty Meal: Almost like okonomiyaki

My fun time in the kitchen continues..... 

 I got this idea from scratch. I try to clear most of the fridge leftovers. Let's see what I found from the fridge.

Remaining iceberg lettuce from the croissants earlier, frozen mixed vegetables, spring onions, big onions, potatoes and eggs. With eggs we can fried an omelet. Will it be too simple? So I intend to make something different and that is why potatoes were in the picture. To make my very own okonomiyaki, I boiled the potatoes and the mixed vegetables earlier. Then I mashed the potatoes and set aside. Next, roughly shredded the lettuce. Finally, the rest of the ingredients are finely chop too.

Get a bowl, mixed all the ingredients together. Add salt, pepper and soy sauce to taste. I even add some corn starch in it. Then, I grab some seaweeds too(*_^) just hantam, just to make it feel like Japanese style. Combine all the ingredients well. There is no need to add water in it. Later, the lettuce will eventually turn watery.

Heat up the frying pan with some oil. Gently pour the egg and vegetables mixture, just like frying an omelet. When I check the bottom is slightly browning, slowly flip it over to let it cook on the other side. I managed to make my okonomiyaki almost 1cm thick like those selling in our local Japanese restaurants. Isn't it simple? It is up to your preference whether you want it to have a bigger okonomiyaki or smaller size one.

In minutes, my hot okonomiyaki is ready to be served. The taste was wise and smells good with onions, lettuce and potatoes.

~ Can always substitute iceberg lettuce with cabbage.

~ Okonomiyaki taste much better with bonito flakes.

Well, this is another healthy way to encourage the kids to love vege. I saw the original recipe from Google later on. It says that it needs flour and made the thing like a batter and fried like a pancake. I shall try out the original recipe next time.

Hey, I'm not going to eat just like that, I still have a main dish to show you guys here. Stay tune....
