Sposób przygotowania

Krok po kroku

  1. 1

    In a large bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, dashi stock, egg, and soy sauce until a smooth batter forms.

    Około 5 min

    Wskazówka kucharza: Ensure there are no lumps in the batter for a smooth texture.

  2. 2

    Heat a takoyaki pan over medium heat and brush each well generously with vegetable oil.

    Około 2 min

    Wskazówka kucharza: A well-oiled pan prevents sticking and helps create a crispy exterior.

  3. 3

    Pour the batter into each well, filling them almost to the brim.

    Około 1 min

  4. 4

    Immediately add one piece of boiled octopus, some green onion, pickled red ginger, and tenkasu into each well.

    Około 3 min

    Wskazówka kucharza: Work quickly before the batter sets too much.

  5. 5

    After a few minutes, when the edges of the batter firm up, use a skewer or chopstick to separate the batter around each well. Begin to turn each ball 90 degrees so the uncooked batter spills into the pan.

    Około 3 min

    Wskazówka kucharza: This technique helps create perfectly spherical takoyaki.

  6. 6

    Continue turning the takoyaki every minute or so, rotating them completely to cook all sides evenly until golden brown and crispy, about 8-10 minutes total.

    Około 10 min

    Wskazówka kucharza: The more you turn them, the rounder and crispier they will become.

  7. 7

    Remove the cooked takoyaki from the pan and transfer them to a serving plate.

    Około 1 min

  8. 8

    Drizzle generously with takoyaki sauce and Japanese mayonnaise.

    Około 1 min

    Wskazówka kucharza: You can use a squeeze bottle for a neat presentation with the mayonnaise.

  9. 9

    Garnish with katsuobushi and aonori, if using, and serve immediately.

    Około 1 min

    Wskazówka kucharza: The katsuobushi will 'dance' from the heat of the takoyaki, which is a fun visual!
