Shrimpcake Nori with Ponzu

This recipe was born one Sunday afternoon while I was trying to create an afternoon snack with ponzu. Ponzu is a tangy, sweet and flavourful Japanese sauce which can be used as a dip, dressing or add into cooking.  Shrimpcake Nori with Ponzu is best served warm and as a snack or appetizer . Enjoy!
