Monjayaki
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Monjayaki (もんじゃ焼き ?) is a type of Japanese pan-fried batter with various ingredients. It is similar to okonomiyaki but monjayaki, a speciality of the Kantō region, is made with a dough more liquid than is okonomiyaki. The ingredients are finely chopped and mixed into the batter before frying. The mixture is far runnier than okonomiyaki, and it has a consistency comparable to a pool of melted cheese when cooked. It's then eaten directly off the grill using a small metal spatula. A great many monjayaki restaurants can be found in the Tsukishima district of Tokyo. Most also serve regular okonomiyaki.
