Those of you who are living in Tokyo might know what Monja is like, and how to cook it. But when I take my friends came from other prefecture to Monja place, they often say, "Is this fully cooked??", or " It doesn't really look good !" But actually, this is fully cooked and you are ready to eat... So
let me explain how to cook Monja.
１）Here is the Monja. After hot plate is heated, oil it lightly.
２）Stir fry all the ingredients. But leave the liquid in the bowl.
３）After vegetables are wilted, create a "bank" to make a hole the middle.
４）Mix well the liquid, and pour it into the hole slowly
５）Wait for a while, and after it is cooked and thickened, mix up
everything.
６）Now you are ready to eat! Use small spatula to eat. Scrape the scorched part, it also tastes good!
Others （Anzu-Maki）
Anzu Maki (Apricot compote roll) is like a Japanese style crepe. Make a large piece of crepe and put apricots in the middle and roll it up. After you cut it in bite size pieces, put some syrup on the top. This is the standard way to cook, but I like smaller piece of Anzu Maki, so I usually make a few small piece of Anzu Maki.
１）Take some crepe mixture, and spread it out on hot plate with the back of a spoon
２）Put some apricot compotes in the middle after crepe is cooked.
３）Roll it up and put some syrup on the top. Even if you are already full,
I am sure your stomach has a room for desert!! !
