Tonpeiyaki
What kind of dish is Tonpeiyaki??
Tonpeiyaki is a dish made by frying pork, cabbage, and bean sprouts and wrapping them in egg. It is usually seasoned with okonomiyaki sauce and mayonnaise.
A popular teppanyaki dish.
Teppan means iron plate, and yaki means stir-fry. In Japanese, it is written as “鉄板焼き”.Teppanyaki includes okonomiyaki, yakisoba, steak, and more.
In the restaurant where tonpeiyaki originated, the dough made from wheat flour is spread thinly like a crepe, pork loin is placed on top, and then egg is placed on top and seasoned with ketchup.
For this reason, it was originally called “konamon ryori” like okonomiyaki and takoyaki. “Konamon cuisine” is a term that refers to staple foods made with wheat flour.
Nowadays, the cooking method of wrapping ingredients in egg, as in this recipe, is mainstream.
Tonpeiyaki does not use wheat flour and is full of vegetables, so it is healthier than okonomiyaki and takoyaki. It is also easy to make with cheap ingredients.
The combination of okonomiyaki sauce, bonito flakes, and green laver is the best.
It’s also delicious with cheese, kimchi, or beni shoga(pickled ginger). Try sprinkling shichimi pepper or finding your favorite seasoning. And, although it may be unusual, it’s also delicious with natto.
