Vegan Fish Made with Mock Fish

This recipe can fool anyone into believing that they are actually eating fish. The texture, look and feel of mock soya fish are very similar to that of a fish. It has seaweed which gives it a fishy smell. This is an excellent alternative to fish for someone transitioning to eating vegan. My Nani grew up eating fish and takes pride in her recipes. I was surprised and happy that she praised this mock fish fry and now enjoys having it. So here’s a Nani-approved recipe. Enjoy!
