山芋が家になかったので、片栗粉と小麦粉をうまく配合させてお好み焼きを作りたいなあと思って調べて作ってみました。
粉の配合_ 小麦粉(薄力粉) : 片栗粉
- 小麦粉多め（3:1）→ ふんわり＆ややもっちり（バランス型）
- 半々（1:1） → もちもち感が強くなる（やや弾力強め）
- 片栗粉多め（1:2など） → もちもちを通り越して「団子」っぽい食感になることも
3人分の材料
- 小麦粉（薄力粉）…150g
- 片栗粉…45g
- 和風顆粒だし 小さじ1
- 水…180ml
- 卵…3個
具材(お好きなものを)
- キャベツ
- ズッキーニ
- 長ネギ
- 豚肉
- サラダ油
- ソース
- マヨネーズ
- 青のり
作り方

キャベツはザクギリに、ズッキーニ は半月薄切りに。長ネギは小口切り
具材入りの生地を作る
卵と水をボウルに入れて混ぜて小麦粉、片栗粉、和風顆粒だしを入れ混ぜる。その後、具材を入れてざっくりと混ぜる。

No Nagaimo? No Problem! How to Make Fluffy Okonomiyaki with Just Flour and Potato Starch
I was craving okonomiyaki the other day, but realized I was out of nagaimo (Japanese yam)—a key ingredient for that soft, gooey texture. So, I did a little digging and found that you can still make a delicious version by blending regular flour and potato starch in the right ratio!
Flour to Potato Starch Ratios (All-Purpose or Cake Flour : Potato Starch)
- More flour (3:1) → Fluffy with a slight chewiness (well-balanced)
- Equal parts (1:1) → Very chewy and elastic
- More starch (1:2 or more) → Turns out more like a dumpling than a pancake—super dense and chewy!
My Go-To Mix (for 3 servings):
- Flour (cake or all-purpose) – 150g
- Potato starch – 45g
- Japanese soup stock granules (dashi powder) – 1 tsp
- Water – 180ml
- Eggs – 3
Toppings & Fillings (go with what you love!):
- Cabbage
- Zucchini
- Green onion
- Sliced pork
- Salad oil (for cooking)
- Okonomiyaki sauce
- Mayonnaise
- Aonori (dried seaweed flakes)
How to Make It:
- Prep your veggies
Roughly chop the cabbage, thinly slice zucchini into half-moons, and finely chop the green onion. - Mix up the batter
In a bowl, whisk together eggs and water. Add the flour, potato starch, and dashi powder, and mix until combined. Then toss in your chopped veggies and give it a quick mix. - Cook it up
Heat a frying pan with a little oil, pour in the batter with all the fillings, and cook until golden brown on both sides.
That’s it! Even without nagaimo, this version turns out fluffy, satisfying, and full of flavor. Play around with the ratio depending on the texture you like. Give it a try and let me know how yours turns out!
