Hawaiian Ahi Tuna Poke Bowl

Instructions

  1. 1

    Rinse sushi rice until water runs clear. Cook according to package directions with a 1:1.2 ratio of rice to water. Let cool to room temperature.

  2. 2

    While rice cooks, cut ahi tuna into 1.5cm (1/2 inch) cubes and place in a bowl.

  3. 3

    In a small bowl, whisk together soy sauce, sesame oil, rice vinegar, honey, and grated ginger to make the poke marinade.

  4. 4

    Pour marinade over tuna and gently toss to coat. Refrigerate for 10-15 minutes to marinate.

  5. 5

    Prepare vegetables: dice cucumber, slice avocado, julienne carrots, and slice green onions. Cut nori sheets into thin strips.

  6. 6

    Divide cooled rice between two bowls as the base.

  7. 7

    Remove tuna from marinade and arrange on top of rice. Reserve marinade for drizzling.

  8. 8

    Arrange avocado, cucumber, edamame, and carrots in sections around the tuna.

  9. 9

    Drizzle reserved marinade over the bowl, sprinkle with sesame seeds, green onions, and nori strips.

  10. 10

    Serve immediately with sriracha mayo on the side if desired.

Chef's Note

"The key to an authentic poke bowl is using the freshest sushi-grade tuna you can find. Ask your fishmonger when it arrived - same day is best! Don't over-marinate the fish; 15 minutes is perfect to maintain its delicate texture."
