To make the vegan fish burgers

2. Prepare the marinade: blend together the nori, beet juice, lemon juice, oil, garlic powder, salt and pepper until smooth.
3. Place the mixture into a bowl or reusable container, add the tofu and let marinade for at least 3 hours. Make sure the tofu is submerged in the marinade.
4. Remove the tofu from marinade and pat it dry with some paper towels.
5. Prepare the battering stations (first dredging in flour, next in vegan “egg” wash and finely in the breadcrumbs.
6. Heat a fry pan on medium heat, add enough oil to the pan to fry the tofu nicely.
7. Fry tofu until golden brown on both sides.
8. Remove from heat and place on a paper towel to absorb more oil.
