A little okonomiyaki anyone?

Okonomiyaki is a popular pan fried food that consists of batter and cabbage. Selected toppings and ingredients are added which can vary greatly (anything from meat and seafood to wasabi and cheese).

Okonomiyaki is sometimes translated into English as "As-you-like-it Pancake". However, this is misleading. Whilst it's made with batter & cooked on a griddle, okonomiyaki has nothing of the sweetness or fluffiness of pancakes, not to mention that it is usually filled with octopus, shrimp or as in this one pork. Not being a cooked cabbage fan I was pleasantly surprised the first time I tried it... it is yummy!

Cauliflower is nothing but cabbage with a college education.
