Kamaboko Chijimi
- 1 full block's worth Kamaboko (red and white, half a block each)
- 1 packages Okra
- 1 Cake flour
- 1 Egg
- 1 tbsp Katakuriko
- 1 Potato, grated
- 30 grams Chinese chives, chopped
- 60 grams Kimchi, chopped
- 1 tbsp Soy sauce
- 1/2 tbsp Vinegar
- 1/2 tbsp Lemon juice
- 1/2 tbsp Mayonnaise
- 1 tsp Honey
- 1 tbsp White sesame seeds, ground
- 1 Sesame oil
- Slice up half a block of red kamaboko and half a block of white kamaboko into 5 mm Of course, a single block of one color would do too.
- Rub salt into the okra, rinse, remove the stem end, and cut in half lengthwise.
- Prepare a plastic bag of cake flour, and shake the pieces of kamaboko and okra in the bag to coat evenly.
- Combine the ingredients and mix until you have an even consistency.
- To make the sauce, combine the ingredients.
- Adjust the spiciness to taste with ichimi spice or other seasonings of your choice.
- If you prefer it sweet, add honey or mirin.
- Heat a pan over medium heat, add sesame oil, then fry both sides of the kamaboko dredged in chijimi batter from Step 2, until crisp.
- After they're done, fry the okra.
- Serve the chijimi and okra with the sauce.
- When serving to children, either reduce the amount of spice or serve with mayonnaise or ketchup.
- This is a great recipe to serve to an unexpected guest, or maybe as a snack -- it's even great as a sandwich filling.
