  2. Take a large bowl and add the 2 tbsp cake flour, 2 tbsp potato starch and 1 tbsp dried green laver powder (aonori). Crush 1 tsp bonito flakes in your hand to make a fine powder and sprinkle it into the bowl. Mix until all the ingredients are evenly distributed.
  3. Pour 60 ml soda water (or club soda) into the dry ingredients and gently stir until combined.

  5. Once the oil is hot, add the battered chikuwa and fry for 1 minute on each side.
  6. Transfer to a wire rack and rest for a few minutes to drain any excess oil.
  7. Serve and enjoy!
