I have tried the more refined version at Tetsuya's (with kombu instead of wakame and nori) and it was a true masterpiece that my wife and I will never forget! Can't wait to try this one.
Laura: don't think its going to be oily just because it "soaks" in oil. The oil is not absorbed and its even less oily than a well dressed salad. All those aromatics help cut any oiliness too. Don't use an inferior "light" olive oil - I'd use my usual extra virgin.

Hot Tips
Toasting spices
Toasting whole spices in a dry pan can help to bring out the essential oils and the flavour in the spice, however be careful to taste as you add the spice to your dish as the flavour will have changed and you may need less. Toasting pre-ground spices is a little trickier and it can ruin the flavour of the spice altogether.
