Kitchen trails - mock vegetarian fish



Mock vegetarian fish. Which is basically tightly rolled beancurd sheets with some wheat protein added, wrapped up in seaweed (Nori sheet). Found in the vegetarian chiller section of the grocers. Try to look for non GMO ones.

It can come in slices or in a long block which can be sliced to desired thickness. It can be used in many ways. Asam fish style, with lots of veggies like lady fingers and brinjal, or just pan fried and added to a sauce of choice. Use it as one would use in asian fish dishes.

I normally buy the long block ones and cut them up myself. Instead of pan or deep frying the slices, I would brush a thin layer of olive oil and put the slices in my toaster oven and toaster fry them about 10 mins each side.

I would use them in my dishes, or added to my noodles, or braise them. They are pretty versatile and there's lots we can do with them.
