Ingredients

• 500 grams Fresh sushi-grade tuna
• 60 milliliters Soy sauce
• 15 milliliters Sesame oil
• 2 pieces Green onions, finely chopped
• 10 grams Sesame seeds
• 0.5 pieces Red onion, finely sliced
• 1 pieces Avocado, diced
• 0.5 pieces Cucumber, thinly sliced
• 100 grams Seaweed salad (optional)
• 400 grams Cooked white rice
• 1 teaspoon Chili flakes
• 1 pieces Lime, cut into wedges

Directions

Step 1

Start by preparing the tuna. If it is not already in one piece, cut the tuna into 1.5 cm cubes for optimal texture.

Step 2

In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the soy sauce, sesame oil, and green onions to create the marinade.

Step 3

Add the tuna cubes to the marinade and gently toss to ensure every piece is well coated. Let the tuna marinate while preparing the other ingredients to give it time to absorb the flavors.

Step 4

Toast the sesame seeds in a small, dry pan over medium heat for 3-4 minutes until they are golden and fragrant. Set aside to cool.

Step 5

Prepare the vegetables. Thinly slice the red onion and cucumber, dice the avocado, and set aside. If using seaweed salad, have it ready as well.

Step 6

Using serving bowls, start by placing cooked white rice at the bottom of each bowl as the base.

Step 7

Arrange the marinated tuna on top of the rice, adding equal amounts to each serving.

Step 8

Artfully arrange the red onion slices, cucumber slices, and diced avocado around the tuna. If desired, add a portion of seaweed salad to each bowl.

Step 9

Sprinkle each bowl with toasted sesame seeds and a pinch of chili flakes for added flavor.

Step 10

Serve the poke tuna bowls immediately. Garnish with lime wedges on the side for an optional citrus squeeze to brighten the flavors.
