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!

Instructions

  1. Chop the tofu into long & broad skewer style shapes & pierce the tofu with a fork.
  2. Marinate the tofu in red chili powder, turmeric, salt, lime juice & oil.
  3. It’s best to marinate tofu overnight or at least for an hour.
  4. You can also marinate the tofu with seaweed or coat the edges with seaweed.
  5. Coat the marinated tofu in rawa (semolina) of your choice and pan fry.
  6. Dish out the hot crispy tofu and spritz with some fresh lime juice and coriander.
