Dinner tonight?

Stupid weeb.

>>7309372
>it's hard to live in NorCal and NOT eat lots of asian and weeb food
especially if you are a low down dirty fucking weeb

>>7309372
My wife's son loves weeb food

What a weeb

Also my local Chinese place doesn't carry bonito flakes, is dried shrimp an acceptable substitute?

third day leftovers from my huge pot of japanese curry that I made

I had homemade sashimi for my dinner last night. So freaking good.

>>7310463
Impeccable knife skills senpai

>>7310463
I really enjoy sushi but it's beyond me how people can eat these fat slabs of raw meat with nothing else

>>7310470

you only need a bit of seasoning and something crunchy to make raw meat really fucking satisfying imo

like capers and toast or soy and daikon

with 'nothing else' it's still perfectly palatable just a bit boring

>>7310463
sharpen your knife dude.

>>7310470
Dunno, I really like it but with good quality soy sauce and spicy sweet and sour sauce. It's weird how well olive oil croutons go well with it too.

>>7310463
That looks a bit soggy and badly chopped though. Either your knife isn't very sharp or you didn't do a very good job cutting it.

>>7310463
I gagged. It's still frozen. The melted parts are liquefied. Ribbon cuts. Dark parts. Fuck. 10/10

>>7309372
>implying you're not a weeb
>on 4chan

It's okay man, you don't need to hide your power level here. Also can I get the recipe you use? I've been wanting to make Okonomiyaki and yours looks bomb

>>7310523
I concur, your Okoniaky looks very yummi, plz recipe?

>>7310463
>homemade sashimi
Did you season with some homemade salt and wash it down with some homemade tapwater?

>>7310523
Fuck anime

>>7310523
>>7310529
OP here. Sure, I'll give you the recipe. And no, I'm not a weeb, I don't watch anime (the only two anime shows I've ever watched have been Space Dandy and Cowboy Bebop - oh, and Hamtaro about 10 years ago when my toddler son used to watch it on Saturday mornings). I'm too old to be a weeb. I also get called a hipster pretty often on here, which I'm also not and am too old to be.
ANYWAY.
For the batter, I used premixed okonomiyaki flour, that I buy at the asian market by my house, but I can tell you the flour mix recipe.
For the batter:
1 cup flour
1/4 tsp sugar
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp baking powder
about 1/3 cup grated japanese yam (you can leave this out if you want)
3/4/ cup dashi
4 eggs
1/2 cup tempura scraps
1/4 cup pickled ginger
- Combine the flour, sugar, salt, yam, and dashi well, and let rest in the fridge for at least an hour, or up to two hours.
- take it out, and add the eggs, ginger, and tempura bits (I also like to add some minced garlic)
For the additions:
about 1/2 a cabbage, chopped (the amount can vary based on how much the batter will accept)
1 cup chopped shrimp or squid
1/2 lb pork belly slices (you can also just use bacon, which is what I did) cut into three inch pieces
For the toppings:
Okinomi sauce
Japanese mayo
Bonito flakes
Pickled ginger,
Crumbled nori
Minced scallions
Add the cabbage and shrimp/squid to the batter, and mix well.
On a hot griddle over medium heat, cook three pieces of pork belly/bacon on one side. Flip over and arrange pieces in a somewhat circular fashion. Heap about 2 cups of your batter mixture over the pork, and push with a spatula into a circular shape. Turn heat to medium low, and let cook for awhile (it takes awhile for it cook, because you don't want it completely raw in the middle) it's ready to flip when you can easily run a spatula underneath it. Flip and continue cooking until it easily flips again.

>>continued

>>7310926
>says he's not a weeb
>does incredibly weeb things

>says he's not a hipster
etc

sorry to derail, please proceed

>>7310926
Remove from the griddle to your plate.
Spread with Okinomi sauce, and then drizzle with mayo. Top with bonito flakes, pickled ginger, crumbled nori, and minced scallions.
I also liberally shake on Nanami Togarashi (red pepper with orange peel, sesame seeds, ginger, and seaweed added) for that extra flavor and heat.
That's it, enjoy!

>>7310932
So, what kind of label would you slap on me if I said I still watch classic Looney Tunes and Tom and Jerry, because that's true too.
I also have a huge collection of 1980s german and austrian new wave, own 26 pairs of cowboy boots, do archery as a sport, and regularly eat at French restaurants? Point being, calling people weebs on here isn't even an insult anymore, it just make you look stupid.

>>7310463
i love sashimi but that looks like absolute shit

>>7310956
pppfffft.....Eh, don't be too hard on that guy. I'm pretty sloppy at cutting sashimi too, But, I hide it pretty well with my presentation. I always do mine like my favorite local place plates theirs, on a bed of crushed ice with shiso leaves and paper thin slices of lemon, along with the pickled ginger and pickled wasabi.
Oh, and pickled wasabi > green paste all day every day.

how hot was your pan? looks a bit doughy. theres a lot of stuff on top so i might not be the best judge...

working split shifts, so dinner tonight is two peanut bars, a relentless and a yoghurt until i get home at 3am. then i might make a giant fucking omelette.

>>7310981
Oh no, it was fully cooked. If it hadn't been, I'd have slapped it back on the grill. I think you're seeing that piece on the front that was broken and flipped over when I plated it. I cooked it over medium heat, but for longer than I normally would, so the interior would be fully cooked. I don't like mine overly browned, so I cook it at a lower heat for longer time. It's crispy, but not dark brown. Just personal preference.

leftover japanese curry, didn't take a pic but it was golden curry extra hot over rice with a fried breaded pork cutlet

I'm making fried chicken, curry rice, and some brussel sprouts in a butter sauce.
I just got home from 7hrs of college labs so I wasn't in the mood to cook something elaborate.

>>7310946

Made some Cuban Ropa Vieja.
I fucking love cilantro... And slowcookers.
I also added a bit of sour cream to the burrito.

>>7311672
You say douche, I say Captain Awesome, everyone has an opinion......

>>7312046
next time you make gyros, try mixing lamb and beef. it cuts the cost and enhances the flavor, I think, plus traditionally that's how they're made in many places.

Not too shabby, my child.

Gonna grill it in a couple hours and have it over some rice.

I'm going to be a fucking heathen tonight and make GRILLED chicken parmigiana, because fuck breading and frying shit.

you dont need to do this, but if you want lamb in it you can. the real thing you need to do is get a food processor, some bacon or fatback or some source of unprocesses (not prerendered) fat. take your ground meat, some garlic (you almost cant overdo it in this case), whatever other greek spices you want, and blend that thing so it makes a sausagey consistancy.

Bake it to set it then crisp it up in a pan.

alterantively if you are not a muslim or jew just make carnitas and stuff in some minced garlic.

>>7312454
I HOPE YOU GET BETTER

Too much mayo and too goopy.

>>7312813
no, that'd be properly fried. solid white, runny yolk.

>>7311692
Welp, to update, I put way too much thyme in and it tasted weird, would've been perfect if not for that

But on the other hand, toasting some fresh bakery bread and then baking it with provolone, swiss, and parmesan and soaking it in the soup was 1:1 in both taste and texture of what they serve in restaurants

Gonna nail it next time

>>7309372
chicken quesadilla with some leftover roast chicken (thighs and breast meat). minced chicken and sauteed with chilli powder, cumin, salt, pepper lime, tobasco. corn tortilla -> refried bean -> lettuce -> chicken -> pico de galo -> cheese -> corn tortilla.

>>7310430
Yes. You have to be careful with it though, as dried shrimp can easily make it too salty. Depends on method of prep. You can order bonito flake on Amazon though.

>>7312825
solid white, raw yolk you mean.
