A healthy, budget-friendly recipe that you can make right away without a cutting board or knife. These are fluffy okonomiyaki-style pancakes made with tuna and bean sprouts. They're perfect for a snack when you're feeling peckish or as a side dish with rice. Adults can enjoy the nostalgic taste with some Japanese mustard on the side.

Ingredients

Main Ingredients (1 pancake)

  • Bean Sprouts: 1 bag (200g)
  • Canned Tuna: 1 small can
  • All-Purpose Flour: 2 tbsp
  • Potato Starch: 2 tbsp
  • Water: 2 tbsp
  • Egg: 1

Seasonings

  • Salt: 1/3 tsp
  • Vegetable Oil: As needed
  • Okonomiyaki Sauce: As needed
  • Mayonnaise: As needed
  • Japanese Mustard: As needed

Steps

  1. In a bowl, combine 2 tbsp water, 2 tbsp all-purpose flour, 2 tbsp potato starch, and 1/3 tsp salt.
  2. Mix briefly. This order of adding ingredients prevents lumps and ensures a smooth mixture.
  3. Next, add 1 bag (200g) bean sprouts, 1 small can tuna, and 1 egg to the bowl.
  4. Mix everything together briefly. The goal is to use minimal batter, with the bean sprouts and tuna forming most of the structure.
  5. Heat vegetable oil as needed in a frying pan.
  6. Pour the batter from the bowl into the frying pan and spread it out as thinly as possible. Spreading it thinly is key to a delicious pancake.
  7. Once the bottom is golden brown and firm, flip it over. Using a lid slightly smaller than the frying pan makes flipping easier.
  8. Cook until both sides are golden brown and crispy.
  9. Transfer to a plate.
  10. Drizzle with okonomiyaki sauce as needed and mayonnaise as needed.
  11. Serve with Japanese mustard as needed, if desired.
