Okonomiyaki

Notes
20260505, #BreakfastDiary 1711, 17°C/sunny
In Japanese, okonomi (お好み) means "as you like it" and yaki (焼き) means "grilled," so loosely translated it means grilling something up however you please. After cooking one round, I belatedly looked up what okonomiyaki actually meant, dug some octopus out of the fridge, and threw it in to suit my taste. Maybe it's just me, but it looks a little burnt - still, about 400kcal, Okonomiyaki.

Slice the cabbage and set aside.
