A surprisingly simple recipe for 'Binder-Free Yam Isobe-age' that all staff members raved about. Simply grate sticky yam with its skin on, mix with Hondashi, wrap in nori, and pan-fry. The crispy outside and fluffy, melt-in-your-mouth inside are addictive! It's the perfect dish to go with drinks.

Ingredients

Main Ingredients (2 servings)

  • Yam 200g
  • Nori sheets (for onigiri) 5 sheets

Seasonings

  • Hondashi 1 tsp
  • Ajishio (seasoned salt) to taste
  • Wasabi to taste

Steps

  1. Burn off the whiskers from the yam using a fork.
  2. Grate 200g of yam with its skin on and place it into a bowl. 【Tip!】 Nagaimo contains too much moisture and cannot be deep-fried, so please use a sticky variety of yam.
  3. Mix 1 tsp of Hondashi into the grated yam.
  4. Prepare 5 sheets of nori (for onigiri) and cut them into appropriate sizes.
  5. Pour about 1cm of frying oil into a frying pan.
  6. Place the yam onto the cut nori, shaping it into a round form. 【Tip!】 If your hands become itchy from the yam, please wear gloves.
  7. Once the oil is hot, drop the nori-wrapped yam into the frying pan and pan-fry.
  8. Once the entire fritter turns golden brown, remove it from the oil. 【Tip!】 It is most delicious when freshly fried, so please eat it immediately.
  9. Plate the dish and sprinkle with Ajishio (seasoned salt) to taste. Serve with wasabi if desired.
