Time 35m

Number Of Ingredients 14

120g sushi rice
2 tsp rice wine vinegar
4 tbsp mayonnaise
1 tsp shichimi togarashi
200g freshest sushi-grade tuna (ask your fishmonger for the thickest slice possible)
1 tbsp sesame oil
2 tbsp soy sauce
juice ½ lime , plus 2 wedges for serving

Steps:

  • Put the rice in a small bowl. Cover with cold water and massage with your hands to remove the starch. Drain and put the rice in a small saucepan with a tight-fitting lid.

Remove from the heat and leave to steam with the lid on for another 15 mins, then stir through the rice wine vinegar.

  • In a large bowl, mix the sesame oil, soy sauce, lime juice and chilli flakes. Add the tuna chunks and stir well, so that every piece is coated in the dressing.
  • To assemble, put a mound of rice in two bowls. Top each with half an avocado, the tuna and dressing, cherry tomatoes and nori. Sprinkle over the chopped nuts and spring onions, and finish with a spoonful of the spicy mayo.

Tips:

  • Use fresh, high-quality ingredients. The fresher the ingredients, the better your poke bowl will taste. Look for sushi-grade fish, ripe avocado, and crisp vegetables.
  • Choose the right rice. Traditionally, poke bowls are made with short-grain white rice. However, you can use any type of rice you like, such as brown rice, black rice, or quinoa.
  • Make a flavorful marinade. The marinade is what gives poke its signature flavor. Use a combination of soy sauce, sesame oil, green onions, garlic, and ginger. You can also add other ingredients, such as lime juice, honey, or Sriracha.
  • Don't overcook the fish. Fish should be cooked quickly and gently. Overcooking will make it tough and dry.
  • Add your favorite toppings. The possibilities are endless! Some popular toppings include avocado, cucumber, edamame, seaweed salad, and crispy onions.

Conclusion:

Poke bowls are a delicious and healthy meal that can be enjoyed for lunch, dinner, or a snack. They are easy to make and can be customized to your liking. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy meal, give poke bowls a try!
