Hello Mere! ^^ Thank you so much for your response! After reading your suggestions, I think I’m going to try the sauce this weekend with some kind of seafood jeon. I imagine the flavour to be light and fresh tasting, perfect for this warm weather we’re having. My mouth’s watering already just thinking about it. lol
Thanks again, wish you all the best!

Your tofu cream sauce is my favorite these days.

Kia ora I think you could use taro in place of tacos. I find it is best to cut the taro very fine or on the finest setting in the food processor. They are more like warm potato crisps -light and crunchy but not as tough as tacos. Parsnips are also delicious done this way too. Hope you will try and enjoy…..

Kia ora Libelle.I am not sure what you could substitute the paua /abalone with. I have served the sauce with mussel fritters and vegetarian -zucchini pancakes. Of course it is very different from having it with paua -abalone but still very nice. Yesterday we were treated to some West Coast whitebait -a real New Zealand seasonal treat. I think the sauce would be good served with this too or just eat the sauce with the taro chips – that’s a yum combo.
Thanks for your interest.

Paua fritters looks good and yummy. Very healthy dish and good for pica-pica :). It is okay for a Taco as a substitute?? . Anyway, I will try this at home and definitely my friends would love to try this different dish.

All that delicious food! *drools* Looks like y’all had a blast! :D
The paua fritters and especially that sauce look so yummy. I don’t think I will be able to get my hands on abalone here, is there anything that I could substitute it with?
Hope you’re enjoying a lovely spring in NYC, Maangchi-unnie! ^^
