For the Poke
- 1 pound ahi-grade tuna (Note 1)
- 4 tablespoons low-sodium tamari or coconut aminos (we like Big Tree Farms)
- 1 tablespoon sesame oil
- 2 teaspoons rice vinegar
- 1 teaspoon grated ginger
- 1 teaspoon sriracha
- 2 scallions, optional (white and light green parts only) For the Bowl
- 1 cup sushi rice
- 1 cup diced mango
- 1 cup diced cucumber
- 1 to 2 sliced avocados
- 1/4 cup chopped macadamia nuts
- microgreens and sesame seeds, to taste
Instructions
- Step 1: Prepare the sushi rice according to package directions. Let cool.
- Step 2: Stir together the tamari, sesame oil, rice vinegar, ginger, sriracha, and optional scallions in a bowl or airtight container. Dice the tuna into bite-sized pieces and add it to the marinade. Cover and refrigerate while you prepare the poke bowl toppings.
- Serve: Assemble your poke bowls with the rice, poke, mango, cucumber, avocado, and macadamias. Garnish with microgreens and optional sesame seeds.
Recipe Notes
Note 1: Since the tuna is raw, aim to purchase the freshest available. Make friends with your local fishmonger. Good tuna will look moist but not wet, and will have a fresh sea-air smell rather than a fishy odor. When in doubt, a high-quality frozen tuna will be better than a poor-quality fresh one.
