One
of
the
____________________
ways
to
prepare
eels
is
to
smoke
____________________
.
To
do
this
you
gut
the
eel
,
peel
____________________
its
skin
and
rub
brown
____________________
on
the
flesh
.
You
then
smoke
the
eel
by
____________________
it
on
a
hook
in
an
open
-
fire
____________________
.
Eels
can
also
be
cut
crossways
into
steaks
,
rubbed
____________________
olive
oil
and
pepper
,
and
fried
on
the
____________________
.
As
eel
is
very
rich
,
you
won't
need
____________________
to
get
your
fill
.
Mature
eels
leave
their
freshwater
homes
and
head
to
____________________
sea
to
breed
.
Early
Maori
dug
long
trenches
in
the
____________________
at
the
mouth
of
an
estuary
,
at
the
point
____________________
eels
would
pass
to
reach
the
____________________
.
Rather
than
____________________
out
to
sea
,
the
trenches
led
the
eel
to
shallow
____________________
where
they
were
speared
,
gutted
and
laid
____________________
on
racks
to
____________________
.
Dried
eel
ensured
a
sustained
____________________
supply
over
____________________
winter
months
.
