@yuijapanesekitchen: No flour. Natural umami. 🌿🐙 One of Japan’s beloved street foods, Osaka-style takoyaki — made lighter, tofu-based, and easy to cook in a frying pan without a special takoyaki maker ✨ 🐙🌿 Quick Takoyaki in a pan ◽︎ Ingredients (2-3 servings) - 300 g tofu (silken or firm) - 2 eggs - 4 tbsp potato starch - 1 tbsp soy sauce - 1 tbsp bonito flakes - Green onions, chopped - Octopus, as much as you like Optional: - Tempura bits - Beni shoga Toppings: - Okonomiyaki sauce - Mayonnaise - Bonito flakes - Green onions - Aonori ◽︎ Prep Drain the tofu well before cooking. Preferred: Place tofu on a rack or wrap in paper towels and drain overnight in the fridge. Quick method: Microwave for 1.5 minutes (600W) to remove excess moisture. ◽︎ Instructions 1. Mix tofu, eggs, potato starch, soy sauce, bonito flakes, green onions, and octopus. 2. Optional: add tempura bits or beni shoga. 3. Heat oil in a frying pan and cook like small pancakes. 4. Flip once and cook until golden. 5. Add toppings — sauce, mayo, bonito flakes, green onions, and aonori ✨ ◽︎ Gluten-free seasoning ideas ✨ Instead of takoyaki sauce or mayonnaise, I also love: • Ponzu & green onions • Sesame oil & sea salt ◽︎ Why it tastes so rich Bonito flakes contain natural inosinate umami. Soy sauce adds depth and complexity. Together, they create a deeply savory Japanese flavor with simple ingredients. Tofu keeps everything light, moist, and satisfying ✨ Save this for later 🇯🇵 @yui_cleancooking #takoyaki #japanesecooking #additivefree #glutainfree #nomsg
