May, '19Okonomiyaki is a Japanese dish. It’s a kind of savoury pancake made up of a batter with cabbage and many other ingredients added in. There are okonomiyaki restaurants in Japan where you buy a bowl of ingredients and cook them yourself on a grill. This is [Chris Hale’s](https://www.iconinc.co.uk/our-community/blog/catching-up-with-chris-hale) take on this popular Japanese food. It’s vegetarian and created exclusively for IconInc.

1. In a bowl, whisk the eggs and flour together until they form a smooth batter. 2. Next add the tofu, onion and chopped veg to the bowl. Mix and season with a little salt and pepper. 3. Heat a dash of oil in a medium frying pan. Then add the mixture and form it into a circular shape in the middle of the pan. Cook both sides for 4-5 mins each. 4.
