Vegan Crispy Fishless

This vegan crispy fishless is so delicious. The tofu works great to give a meaty texture and the nori provides the fishy taste. This vegan fishless is incredibly crispy and just insanely delicious. We prefer to eat this with homemade vegan cocktail sauce. Simply delicious. Let us know in the comments below if you made this vegan crispy fishless. We are very curious what you think.

Serves: 3-4 (as a snack)
Preparation time: 20 minutes
Total time: 30 minutes

Ingredients

½ tbsp flour (plus 1 tbsp water)

450 g tofu
1 ½ tbsp rice flour
2 tbsp flour
¾ tsp salt
⅛ tsp garlic powder
⅛ tsp black pepper
Pinch cayenne pepper
1 nori sheet (seaweed)

95 g flour
¼ tsp salt
⅛ tsp black pepper
155 ml water

750 ml sunflower oil

Method

1. Mix ½ tbsp flour with 1 tbsp water in a small bowl. This will ensure that the nori sheet sticks to the tofu. Set aside for now.
2. In another bowl, mix the tofu, rice flour, flour, salt, garlic powder, black pepper and cayenne pepper. If necessary, use your hands to knead everything to combine. Wet your hands and shape the tofu mixture into small fish filets between your hands. Cut out the same shapes from the nori sheet as the fish filets. Spread some of the mixture (from step 1) on the nori and stick on all the tofu filets (see the video).
3. Mix the flour, salt, black pepper and water in a bowl. Dip the tofu fish filets, one by one, into the batter and fry in the hot sunflower oil until they turn brown and begin to float to the top. Let the crispy fishless drain on some kitchen paper. Serve with a tasty vegan sauce of your choice.
