Why I Love This Recipe

Takoyaki originated in Osaka, Japan, in the 1930s and has since become a popular street food across Japan. The word 'tako' means octopus, and 'yaki' means grilled or fried.


Ingredients You'll Need

1 cup all-purpose flour
2 eggs
1.5 cups dashi stock
0.5 lb cooked octopus, diced
0.25 cup green onions, finely chopped
0.25 cup tempura scraps (tenkasu)
Vegetable oil for cooking
Takoyaki sauce
Japanese mayo
Aonori (dried seaweed)
Bonito flakes


Directions

Mix flour, eggs, and dashi to make a smooth batter.


Heat a takoyaki pan or cake pop maker with oil.


Pour batter into molds, add octopus, green onions, and tempura scraps.


Cook for 1-2 minutes, then flip balls to cook evenly.


Cook until golden brown and crispy.


Plate and top with takoyaki sauce, mayo, aonori, and bonito flakes.


Serve your Chavez Ravine Takoyaki Balls and root for the Dodgers!


Pairs Well With

Japanese beer or a refreshing iced green tea for a non-alcoholic option.
