Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. In a large bowl, whisk together soy sauce, rice vinegar, and toasted sesame oil. Add in tuna and gently stir to cover the tuna in the marinade. Set the bowl of marinating tuna aside for 10-15 minutes and prepare toppings.
  2. To make spicy mayo, whisk together mayonnaise, sriracha sauce, toasted sesame oil, and lemon juice in a small bowl. Pour into a squeeze bottle or keep in the small bowl, wrapped in plastic wrap. Keep in fridge until ready to serve.
  3. To serve, scoop a healthy serving of sushi rice into your serving bowls, about one cup of rice per person. Add the marinated tuna and your prepared toppings to your poke bowl, then drizzle with the spicy mayo.
  4. Eat immediately.

Notes

  • Sushi Grade tuna is necessary, as this dish is raw. You can also substitute sushi-grade salmon for the tuna.
  • Fresh sushi-grade tuna should be eaten the day of for safety reasons. This ahi tuna poke recipe does not make good leftovers, which is why this recipe makes for 2-3 servings. Adjust the amount of tuna and marinade for more servings.
  • Kewpie brand Japanese mayonnaise is preferred, but regular store-bought mayonnaise or even homemade mayonnaise works very well.
