What is Takoyaki?

Tkoyaki is a Japanese savoury ball-shaped pancake that mainly consists of batter and octopus or any other filling you like.

The word "Tako" means Octopus, and the word "yaki" means grilled or cooked. Thus, you can add different toppings and ingredients to the batter base. The most common filling is of course octopus, but you can put squid, shrimp, cheese or anything you think would match with.

And for the toppings; takoyaki sauce, Japanese mayonnaise, katsuobushi (bonito flakes) or aonori (type of seaweed) makes takoyaki even better!

DIRECTIONS OF USE:

1. Put 510cc water in a bowl. Add the 1 bag of flour mix and 2 eggs and stir well.
2. Warm a  Takoyaki Hot Plate up to 200 degree and grease.  Put the dough up to half of the holes.
3. Put the ingredients over the dough and again add rest of the dough until it overflows.
4. Cook 1min and a half, and turn the dough to make it round. In order to make the dough round, move the overflow dough inside the holes.
5. Keep turning until it becomes round and brown.
6. Add Aonori (which comes with the set) or any topping you want like Takoyaki Sauce, Japanese Mayonnaise, and Bonito Flakes.
