Alex! You are one of my favorite youtubers! You dont have millions of subscribers (wich I dont understand why) but its something about your channel. Its the atmosphere, the spirit and the passion for what youre doing that makes me like you so much. Keep it up man!
Cheers
I managed to make this almost completely out of leftovers. I had some leftover nori sheets I dropped in my spice grinder to make a powder, that worked great for the topping. I used leftover chopped bacon instead of fresh strips. It was incredible! Between this and quiche I should be able to make a delicious meal out of practically anything. Great find!
rmbennet Good ! I love cooking with leftovers
Outstanding! I lived in Japan for two years, and it's rare to find people exposed to more than sushi and ramen in the US. Thanks for broadening our horizons!
Man can't stop making your recipes thank you so much.
Love Okonomiyaki. I've been meaning to make this myself for a long time. One of my favourite Japanese dishes. Both look amazing Alex. Nice twist :)
Thanks a lot Anna :)
okonomiyaki is the food of my childhood! i love adding tako, or octopus in english, and i like to add lots and lots of spring onions!
Mika Morii Tako no Okonomiyaki ! Subarashi !
Mika Morii You are actually god
I hear or read the word taco, you get a mexican like hahaha
Great recipe *****. "Haunted" bonito flakes get me every time! Keep up the good work!
Hey French Guy, that was beautiful! We have been making okonomiyaki for years but never thought about a southwest bbq twist. Brilliant! I must give that a try.
Hey John ! Thanks and i am sure you can give it your twist as well :)
seriusly, i clicked only because of the thumbnail. this is the best thumbnail on youtube period.
Wershershyer! Bless you French Guy. Even we Brits have no idea how to say Worcestershire 'Wooster' Sauce most of the time. Keep doing what you're doing. Bravo! :)
Wooster sauce ? All right ! Let me keep that one haha
It's nice to see you cook something different than everyone else. Would be nice to see this different kind of cuisine in your new content because i just realize you did this back in 2014
I love your sense of humor, well done!!
You're like a culinary artist, very creative, amazing!
I will definitely try this today. Your channel is among my top favorites btw, great recipes you have here!
Try it it's amazing :) Thanks for stopping by Aurelian Cretu
I love okonomiyaki. I also make it vegetarian and add spices to the batter. Great recipe and great video as always. Thank you.
Looks much better than i thought it would, something worth trying
***** You just transported me back to Oz where I had this for the first time. I often thought about it but didn't know it was called "Okonomiyaki' . Thanks so much for sharing.
Hey Gemma ! What's Oz ?
Australia :) .I am Irish and it was the first place I had proper Asian food. This was one of the first dishes I had.
All right :) is it like known to be called Oz ? like this name
Your videos are getting better and better, sir.
Looks great! You looked brilliant at the start of the vid tooo! :)
Haha ! It's my fighting spirit face :) Arigato Donal-san !

Radickly Rick Get out
why? because now you doubt your internet crush is gay?
like you had a chance :D
He has a wife/spouse/girlfriend you immature imbecile.
Nice recipe! Thank you for broading our knowledge!!!
This is my favorite Japanese food! I ate soooo much of it when I was living in Japan. My favorite that I tried was pizza okonomiyaki!
Hooray for the twisted version! Can't have them shrimps biting back. Thanks French Guy!
Lol they might bite you back indeed
I *love* okonomiyaki, thanks for showing me how to make it!!
I love it too
For some reason it reminds me of Colombian street fast food, a thin arepa with bacon slaw a cheese over it. Instead of mayo pink sauce or pineapple sauce. In any case brilliant as always frenchie! cheers from Colombia!
Cabbage pancake, I love it. Can't wait to try it!
Yum, I love Okonomiyaki! Thanks for the recipe!
You are the best haha I love your videos, you always make me smile :)
:D
9 years later, this is my to-go recipe for okonomiyaki. grazie Alex!
Looks awsome! Remindes me of a traditionally swedish dish "Kålbulle" which starts of the same: batter, cabbage, onion and bacon.
Yum, yum, yum and another yum! Love your twisted version :)
Thanks Danny Vlogs !
Bacon for a crust! So many things you can do with this. LOVE IT :) I really like the young green/spring onion too. :)
The bacony crust is the bomb indeed. Thanks for stopping by Rainbow Gardens
you need to have your own show soon! good stuff. lotsa love from Singapore!
Nicole Tan Definitely :) Thanks
Alex... This is amazing. Great channel!
I really love japanese cuisine, but I never tried a Okonomiyaki, you made it look so easy that I will have to try at home :)
Please try it ! it's a mazing :)
Mais.. tu es trop adorable toi! Really enjoyed this. Thanks Alex! xx
Haha the hashtags you put in your videos always crack me up! Interesting recipe, might twist it a bit myself, see how it goes. Cheers Alex!
You have every right to do so ! :)
We love this pancake and always order it at our Maneki Neko Japanese restaurant. Thanks for the recipe, I 've been wondering how it is made. And you are pretty amusing too!
SOOO GOOOD! Omg I missed watching your videos D:
I love Okonomiyaki and we have a similar dish from where I'm from and I have it on a regular basis. The way you made it, is just so clean and perfect omg love it! Great job Alex! :D
Thanks ! btw What is your dish like ?
You're very welcome! Ah well there are many versions just like for Okonomiyaki I guess. But there's two common versions. One is made from pureed red lentil paste, onions, green chillies, salt and a little red chilli powder..which you spread out and fry in a cast iron pan. Folks normally don't add anything to it since it's sth you eat with curry or vegetables or just plain. The second version is made from rice flour or even regular flour and you basically make a standard flour, water batter and then you pour it in a pan and add your favourite toppings like tomatoes, onions, chillies, sausage, egg, etc. So this one is more similar to okonomiyaki I guess. This can also be eaten without any toppings along with curry and stuff. Yeeah, sorry it got a bit long but I love talking about food XDD Thanks for your interest! :D
Love okonomiyaki. I add about 2 tbsp to 1/4 cup of nagimo (sticky potato), diced mochi (unsweetened rice cake) or shredded cheese to make it more stretchy. I like to add thinly sliced pumpkin, zucchini, sweet potatoes or any veg you can use in a stir fry. I also use kombu or shiitake dashi. Alternatively, you could also use diluted consume or stock for more western flavours.
I never thought of learning japanese recipe form a french guy xD Btw okonomiyaki is one of my favorite japanese dish.TQ!!
+Fika Khamis You never know what's gonna happen here :)
Great recipe! Thanks for idea how to use cabbage.
Indeed ( sometimes a bit tricky to use it, don't tell)
Great video Alex. I like how you say Jalapeños! Tres chic.
Stephanie Daye Hahaha Thanks darling
Love Okonomikyaki! When I visited Japan, I tried the 'Hiroshima' take on it - where they add noodles to the pancake. So tasty!
Alexandra Carr Hiroshima version is crazy good indeed. Love Japan so much :)
Omg the bbq one looks good!!! Frenchie u r amazing! :-D
Great Video, I reall love the TextMexTwist. I like to add some grated cheese and tiny mochi bits into the batter to make it all gooy and delish.
!Pro Tip for the home-made Okonomi sauce: add a teaspoon of cherry (or really, any other red) jam to enhance the sticky sweetness of the original
Okonomiyaki is my favourite japanese dish in Japan... tomorrow I'll prepare it ^^
+Cucina con D. The best
I should definitely try these :D
Look so good :)
nice job!! I love your channel :)
I love pickled ginger! It's one of my favorite food! I love this dish, and Vietnam has it too, but they never add the pickled ginger! Well, now I can make my own, so it's alright!
I wonder why everything I like to eat comes in a large pancake shape (okonomiyaki, quesadillas, galettes... ). Well done *****
as a childhood ranma 1/2 fan this makes me so happy! and "dancing demons," haha! cheers from paris :)
I grew up watching Ranma Nibun-no-Ichi ! :)
definetely will try the twisted recipe one...
LOL " #SHOYU " I love this French guy!
Bless you for that :)
one of my favorite Japan things
appetizing
Will give it a try
Looks great Alex. The bonito flakes freaked me a little but I would like to give this a go. Thank you :)
The bonito flakes aren't alive if that's what freaks you out, I think it's moving because of the heat and it is paper thin
marie Savino Don' be afraid cause they don't bite :) Ouch they just did
***** LOL!
This guy needs more subs.
WISDOM
Gonna try this soon! Subscribed!
Japanese mayo is essential for this! :D It's SOOO delicioooous.
My gosh this looks amazing!
Hey thank you +chrissstttiiine :)
i like how alex pronounces words.
he makes an effort to get things right..
I recommend Kewpie mayonnaise , it's the only way to eat it in my opinion. Great video!
incroyable! I'll totally try this recepie! Arigato to you:)
You are awesome! The recipes are brilliant and you make laugh so much! XD
We all need a good laugh don't we ?
When I make these, I make my own vegan dashi with kombu and dried mushrooms. Pretty damn good
I just watched an ad of a supermarket about cooking Okonomiyaki(Well I've seen the ad many times now but...)
Tis was hilarious.
It's similar with bakwan or bala bala in my country.. the batter usually filled with cabbage and carrot, and then we deep fried it. eat it with chili sauce or fresh chili .. yummy ..
You are very talented, entertaining. Thanks much! Will try!
Well thank you for that :) Support much appreciated !!
Always wanted this tasty dish :D luv you Alex
My new favourite Chanel 👍✊
That Japanese Alex on the thumbnail has to be the greatest thing I've ever seen today
Awesome!
I have had this before and it is very tasty.
Lovin the puns and references :)
Looks delicious!
Liked for that barbarian flip hahaha
I love your videos! :) Can you make more Japanese dishes please? Like Mitarashi Dango or Kishimen (a type of noodle from Nagoya) or Dengaku Tofu please?
Merci Alex,pour la recette.
...we're those bonito flakes... Wiggling?! Looks delicious regardless, awesome video, French guy!
Thanks caleb shaffer
looks tasty
I'd love to see you cooking Hiroshima style Okonomiyaki! :)
I'm pretty late to the party here but in an attempt to imitate the okonomiyaki from a local restaurant I added some cooked instant noodles in the middle. It adds a really satisfying texture! I also forgot to buy cabbage so iceberg lettuce was OK to add a similar texture. Cabbage would be better though.
Also, a couple of vegetarian substitutions (grumble grumble, gf is vegetarian, no bacon): vegetable stock and mushroom-infused soy instead of dashi and water, diced and panfried portobello mushroom for protein. If you have some dried shitake mushrooms then making a tea from those would be a good alternative to the mushroom soy.
Ohh yum! This looks so good! I've been wanting to make a gluten free version for a while now so I think I might give that a go *****
Give it a go ! and afterwards tell me and the others here how you made it... it's interesting :)
Love both but will try the first. I could get BBQ anywhere, any time, etc. I want a small adventure and this could be my chance!
Salut Alex! You did it once again! i love your Okonomiyaki and I have to make your bbq style Okonomiyaki. For you, please try the Hiroshima style Okonomiyaki. It's even better!
I know ! I wanna try it :)
another good substitution for okonomiyaki sauce is brown sauce (hp sauce) you can add a little sugar to make it even closer to the real sauce. I think the aonori and bonito really make it!!! (don't leave your cat alone with bonito flakes though! they'll be gone in a second!)
Very nice!
When will we see a proper Persian food? Like Fesenjan for example...
P.s. I've seen your jam! ;)
Ouh yes, fesenjoon is SO Good. Made it first time just two days ago and I loved it.
Made this using my gluten free flour blend, it has black rice flour amd black bean flour so the pancakes were reddish-grayish. I added a ton of veggies because I dont eat meat. I made my version of the sweet sauce too ( coconut nectar, mustard, soy sauce, a bit lime juice). I used vegan pork floss, seaweed and sesame seeds for toppings ;)
Wow ! You do know about cooking, don't you ?
***** Hi! Oh I wish, I just like playing with what I have on hand :D
Oui monsieur. Subscribed.
The latter is wow!
Salut Alex. My daughter is allergic to egg (and shellfish) and would like your input to a substitute for egg in Okonoyaki/ batter / etc. Any good ideas? Regards Arne
you can make Korean dish some other time Alex!!!!Love your videos
So weird that this popped up on my subscribed list today, as my man and I just looked up this dish when we saw it on a Japanese show and wondered what the heck it was.
We're making this dish now.
Time to search for Bonito flakes. We don't have a Asian store in my town, so I'm thinking internet.
Internet rules !
What about thin slices of parma ham instead of the bonito flakes? Not the same flavor but might be easier to find in some countries.
Hugo Mendes Would be spot on
Looks wonderful!! Do you think it would still taste yummy without meat?
No shrimps ? No bacon ? No chicken ? .... mmmh maybe add some mushrooms to give it more attitude !
Mushrooms and smoked paprika!
Kare kare is an oxtail based stew made with peanut butter and vegetables including (but not limited to) Bok Choy, eggplants, garlic, and etc. with a side of shrimp paste it is yummy :)
hahahaha your video's are as funny as they are delicious!
Gia Caputo MOSTDOPE Best comment ever !
You could sub 1/4 cup of cornmeal in the flour for the batter on the "Southern" style Okonomiyaki
I almost freaked out too. Lets call it the dancing-katsuobushi.
je suis une belge flandrienne qui ne touche pas la cuisine, seulement Alex me pourrait séduire à essayer et experimenter comme ca. c'est pas sorcier (lol), mais c'est très charmant: il rend chaque recette impresionante dans un défi fun :D
jajajajaja... how long did you practice saying "jalapeños"?? I loved it!!
I hope I'll see you cook something mexican one day!
XOXO!
