Like it's Deep Fried: Mayonnaise Sautéed Chikuwa

Chikuwa tempura is tasty, but it's a bother to take care of the oil afterwards. So I thought up this sautéd version that has the same texture and rich taste.
It can be varied in many ways, and the ingredients are simple, so it's great to serve as drinking appetizers to unexpected guests.

By coating the chikuwa pieces completely in katakuriko and sautéing with mayonnaise, they'll taste as rich and crispy as if they've been deep fried.
The key is to cook them until they're no longer floury, and are properly browned all over. For 4 servings. Recipe by ryueru
