For all those vegetarians out there who feel tormented that they
can no longer enjoy the pleasure of eel for dinner, worry no longer.

3) Cat 1,2
4) Split nori into four files & place on flat surface
5) Overlay ea. pc. nori with 175 mm. (~1/2") tofu mix
6) Heat oil to 350 degrees F.
7) Deep fry tofu with nori side down
8) Remove after few minutes but while tofu is still light in colour
9) Peel & grate ginger, then extract juice
10) Cat 1 t. ginger juice with soy sauce
