Effortless Knife-Free Bean Sprout Okonomiyaki

I couldn't help but buying lunch when I had morning sickness… But I was discouraged by the preservatives and besides, I wanted to save up! That's when I discovered bean sprouts, and got inspired to make an easy dish. Using potato mochi dumplings as an example, I added katakuriko starch to hold everything together.
It will be easier to eat if you break the bean sprouts into really small pieces in Step 1. When mixing other vegetables in Step 2, take care to microwave any that are harder to cook. That's because you don't fry them for too long on the pan. Recipe by Shi- mama

Low-Sugar Hiroshima Okonomiyaki with Okara & Bean Sprouts Low-Sugar Hiroshima Okonomiyaki with Okara & Bean Sprouts
I wanted to make Hiroshima-style okonomiyaki using okara and cooking in a frying pan, but it didn't turn out well, as I wasn't used to making it. (I burnt the okonomiyaki while adding the ingredients on top, and had trouble flipping it.) So, I made the recipe easier by using a microwave.If you have trouble flipping the okonomiyaki in Step 10 and it crumbles a bit, you can adjust the shape by using a spatula to help the egg attach to the okonomiyaki.I recommend using meltable cheese, as it gives a nice flavor. I used 1 piece of cheese, but you could use 2 pieces if you like.I wanted to make a low-sugar recipe, so I didn't use cabbage or yakisoba noodles, but you can add them if you like.
