Provided by mahto

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 pound yellowfin tuna steak, sushi or sashimi grade (fresh or flash frozen)
1 tablespoon soy sauce, to taste
1/2 tablespoon sesame oil, to taste
2 scallions, chopped finely
1/4 onion, sliced (optional)
2 tablespoons mayonnaise or Japanese mayonnaise
2 tablespoons Sriracha sauce, or to taste
2 teaspoons tobiko or masago (optional)

Steps:

  • If tuna is frozen, thaw by submerging in room temperature water for 30 minutes. When tuna is almost completely thawed, slice into small 1-inch cubes (it's easier to slice when still chilled). Combine in a bowl with 1 tablespoon soy sauce, 1/2 tablespoon sesame oil, and 1 chopped scallion. Chill in fridge for about 30 minutes. Combine mayo, Sriracha, remaining scallions (reserving a bit for topping), and 1 tablespoon tobiko or masago, whisking briefly until combined. When tuna is chilled, add the spicy mayo and mix gently with your hands until fully coated. Top with a bit more tobiko and scallions, and serve with rice and any of your other favorite poke ingredients. You can also add toasted sesame seeds for a nice crunch. The poke will be good for up to one day, but is best eaten fresh.

1/8 cup shoyu sauce
1 teaspoon spicy sesame seed oil (rayu)
1 teaspoon Sriracha chili sauce
3 Hawaiian chiles or Thai chiles, plus 1 for garnish

2 teaspoons minced garlic
2 teaspoons rice vinegar or white vinegar
1/2 teaspoon Hawaiian sea salt or kosher salt

  • Dice the Hawaiian chiles, ghost pepper and habanero as small as possible and add to the mixing bowl. Add the seaweed salad and mix all the ingredients together.

AHI POKE CRUNCH WRAP



Ahi Poke Crunch Wrap image

Provided by Food Network

Time 15m

Yield 1 serving

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 ice-cream scoop of steamed white rice
One 12-inch flour tortilla
1 small handful mixed greens
1 tostada
Ahi Tuna Poke, recipe follows
Pickled ginger, for garnish
Serving suggestions: wasabi, spicy mayonnaise and teriyaki sauce
1 pound sushi-grade ahi tuna, cut into 1/4-inch cubes
2 tablespoons chile paste
1 tablespoon grated ginger
1 tablespoon sesame oil
Kosher salt

Steps:

  • Scoop the rice onto the tortilla. Top with the mixed greens, followed by the tostada. Place some Ahi Tuna Poke on the tostada, and top with a few pieces of pickled ginger. Add about a tablespoon each of wasabi, spicy mayonnaise and teriyaki. Wrap up like a burrito.
  • In a bowl, mix together the tuna, chile paste, ginger, sesame oil and a pinch of salt.

Tips:

  • Choose the freshest ahi tuna possible. Fresh tuna has a vibrant red color and a firm, springy texture. Avoid tuna that is brown or grayish in color, or that has a slimy or mushy texture.
  • Cut the tuna into small, bite-sized pieces. This will help the marinade to penetrate the tuna and will make it easier to eat.
  • Marinate the tuna for at least 30 minutes, but no longer than 2 hours. Marinating the tuna will help to flavor it and make it more tender. If you marinate the tuna for too long, it can become tough and chewy.
  • Use a variety of fresh ingredients in your poke bowl. This will add flavor, color, and texture to the dish. Some popular ingredients include avocado, cucumber, edamame, seaweed salad, and crispy wontons.
  • Serve the poke bowl immediately after preparing it. This will ensure that the fish is fresh and the other ingredients are at their best.

Conclusion:

Ahi poke is a delicious and healthy dish that is perfect for a quick and easy meal. It is also a great way to use up leftover tuna. With a few simple ingredients, you can create a delicious poke bowl that is sure to please everyone at the table.
