Tuna Poke Bowls with Fresh Ground Ginger Powder
Tuna Poke Bowls
This tuna poke recipe is straight from our heart. Spending five plus years in the Aloha state of Hawaii gave us a real appreciation for tuna poke and using ginger in everything from this recipe here to delicious chicken soup. If you do not live in Hawaii, there is no need for local take out when it is so easy to make your own delicious poke bowls right at home!
Start by marinating sushi-grade tuna in a mixture of soy sauce, sesame oil, ground ginger and sliced scallions. Make a simple dressing of mayo, sriracha and more ground ginger, and add just enough water to make it easy to drizzle over your bowls.
Now build your bowls! You can use whatever you like, we love this combination of brown rice, Persian cucumbers, red cabbage, seaweed salad and sliced avocado.
Top with your dressing and a sprinkle of sesame seeds and enjoy! We hope you find this recipe as Ono as we do.
