Takoyaki is Japanese savory snack made from flour based batter and also called as a “Octopus Balls”. It’s usually a ball shaped filled with octopus. But since I don’t have octopus, this time I replace it with shrimp. To make this snack, requires a Takoyaki pan to make them into ball shape. All right, let’s move on to the recipe.

Place chopped shrimp in each. Sprinkle green onion in each. Pour batter over until the hole is completely covered.
6

Allow to cook a few minutes. Using chopsticks to flip the semi-cooked batter, and push batter edges over the hole.

Gently turn each Takoyaki into ball shaped using a lifting flicking rolling motion. Repeat the steps for each Takoyaki and continue to cook, keep turning balls until they golden brown and the surface of Takoyaki crispy.

Take off from the Takoyaki pan, transfer to a serving plate, topped with Japanese mayonnaise, ketchup or sriracha sauce, and sprinkle with green onion. Serve immediately. Enjoy!
