Grated Yam Teppanyaki (Easy to make Tororo gratin Recipe)

Yamaimo teppan yaki

Whak kind of dish is yamaimo teppan yaki?

Grated yam gratin is a very popular dish among people of all ages and genders.

This dish is made by grating yam and baking it in the oven, and is a standard menu item at Izakaya Restaurants.

It looks similar to okonomiyaki or monjayaki, but it is a gluten-free dish that does not use wheat flour.

yamaimo = nagaimo = mountain yam　 ⇒　yama = mountain　

The appeal of this dish is its soft and creamy texture. This unique texture is achieved by grating mountain yam. (Grated mountain yam is called tororo.)

Cooking on an iron plate is called ”teppan yaki”, and the name comes from the fact that it is made in an iron vessel like a skillet.

Iron utensils are heavy and difficult to maintain, so I use heat-resistant plates.

Enjoy the melty texture and flavor of the dashi. I’m sure you’ll want to eat it again.

A popular variation is to top it with cheese before baking, which adds a rich flavor.

It’s easy to make at home, so be sure to give it a try.
