Fried konjac

Do you know what konjac is? According to Wikipedia, the English name for konjac is "elephant foot". It might be known as diet food next to tofu outside Japan because it's a low calorie food but we eat it generally here in Japan.

Konjac is made of konjac potatoes. It looks like a jelly mass but tastes nice if you boil it with another ingredients and soup. 

When I was overseas, it was so difficult to find this kind of Japanese food so I decided to eat more of those such as konjac, tofu, age and so on as long as I'm in Japan...
