What is Taiyaki? Taiyaki is a Japanese pancake-like cake traditionally filled with sweet red bean paste (although it can be filled with other things like custard, chocolate etc), molded into the shape of a fish (usually a carp) and fried to a golden perfection. Taiyaki is often sold in smaller towns of Japan in taiyaki shops or stands.

These taiyaki were a bit too crispy for my taste. I think I'll try cooking them for a shorter amount of time next time.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my taiyaki turned out flat and dense. Maybe I didn't mix the batter properly.

I'm allergic to seafood, so I made these taiyaki with a chocolate filling instead. They were still delicious!
