Its a hot day and not only do I not want to cook but turning
on the oven or even stove is not a good option.
I guess we could grill but when we find a delicious, very fresh piece
of ahi tuna, everyone here wants poke.
This delicious island-inspired dish (Hawaiian) is one of our favortites and a go to.
There are many variations but this simple recipe is a great way to get it
done quickly and let the flavors meld together for great eats at a later time.
Great as an appetizer or dinner course
Recipe :
6 servings or 4 generous for dinner
1 pound to 1 1/2 -ahi tuna - cut into small pieces, place into a bowl
1/2 tsp powdered ginger
3 tbsps Hawaiian soy sauce - the best flavor
(or regular soy sauce or gluten-free Braggs aminos)
1 tbsp black or regular sesame seeds
1 to 2 tsp sesame oil
3 green onions chopped small (kitchen scissors work great here too)
Serving ideas.....
pickled ginger
cucumber slices
avocado
water crackers or slices of baguette
favorite lettuce leaves (long romaine leaves are a great way to use
like a cup and place some poke on)
add some red pepper flakes for heat
add more sesame oil for freshness
