Takoyaki Octopus Balls

4.0576 ratings

A thin dashi batter is poured into a sizzling cast-iron takoyaki pan, studded with tender octopus, pickled ginger, and scallion, then rotated with skewers until it forms crisp golden spheres with molten centers. Brushed with sweet-savory sauce, zigzagged with mayonnaise, and showered with bonito flakes, they practically dance.
