A market gardener and Huon Valley hero, Jane share with us her go-to Autumn recipe—Okonomiyaki (also known as a Japanese Pancake).
I love these simple, nutritious, tasty, anything goes pancakes. They’re easy and fun to make and are great with either (or all) a green salad, cucumber salad, wilted spinach or mashed potatoes.
This recipe has my favourite ingredients. However, you can use up any seasonal veggies you have, but make sure you add the cabbage, it’s the best bit and it grows in the veggie garden nearly all year round.
