Low Carb Okonomiyaki

Tuesday Dinner

- Low Carb Okonomiyaki
- Leftover Chicken

Okonomiyaki, sometimes called as Japanese savoury pancake is a popular Japanese dish in Australia.  I made a low carb version using soy pulp (Okara) and tin tuna.  It was light and fluffy but I will make it with bacon next time.  Sweet and savoury sauce is always a winner for hubby.
