Okonomiyaki-style Chinese Cabbage Omelette

I wanted to use up a bit of the huge shipment of Chinese cabbage that I was gifted.
At first I was using it in stew, then I made mapo-style Chinese cabbage, and then I decided on something similar to okonomiyaki!

It's better to use fresh cabbage in the omelette, rather than stir-frying it beforehand. This will give you a crunchier texture.

Originally I thought that it would be better to stir-fry the cabbage first to prevent any excess moisture, but actually it had the opposite effect and I ended up with a messy omelette. Recipe by Shijimi24

Ingredients

1 serving
  1. 1Egg
  2. 1leaf Chinese cabbage (medium)
  3. 2Wiener sausages
  4. 1Mayonnaise and okonomiyaki sauce
  5. 1optional ★ Bonito flakes and red pickled ginger

Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    This omelette is delicious even without bonito flakes. If you stir-fry the cabbage before cooking, it'll wilt and soften. This means that the okonomiyaki will lose its crunch.

  2. 2

    Chop the Chinese cabbage up into 1 cm pieces and slice the sausage into whatever size you prefer.

  3. 3

    Combine the sausage and cabbage with the beaten egg. If the pieces of cabbage are too big, the mixture will be difficult to mix.

  4. 4

    Cook the omelette in a frying pan that has been greased with a thin layer of oil. Allow the omelette to cook slowly without interfering.

  5. 5

    Once one side is cooked, flip the omelette over. You can cover the pan with a lid if you like, but the omelette will turn out just fine without it.

  6. 6

    Slide the omelette onto a plate and pour over some mayonnaise and okonomiyaki sauce to serve.

  7. 7

    If you have them, decorate the omelette with bonito flakes and red pickled ginger. It'll make the omelette look even more similar to okonomiyaki.
