Bowls

1 Prepare Ingredients

Finely slice cabbage, grate carrot, slice spring onion finely (separating white and green parts). Slice radish into matchsticks or thinly slice.

Tip! If you have one, A mandolin is handy for the cabbage.

2 Prepare Pancake Mix

In a bowl combine egg, flour and soy sauce with ¹⁄₄ cup of water and mix into a thick batter. Add the cabbage, carrot and white parts of the spring onion and mix well to combine.

3 Cook Pancake

Heat a pan over medium high heat, add a drizzle of oil to coat bottom of the pan. Add half the pancake mix. Turn down to medium-low and cook for 5 minutes or until golden and crispy. Flip pancake over and cook for a further 5 minutes or until cooked through and golden brown. Cover with a lid to help it cook evenly. Keep warm and repeat.

4 Prepare Salad

5 You Plate It

Place pancakes on serving plates and drizzle over tonkatsu sauce, mayonnaise and sriracha to taste. Top with pickled ginger, green spring onion and fried shallots. Serve with green salad and dig in while it's piping hot and crispy.

Tip! Leave off the sriracha if you don't like heat.
