Start by preparing the tuna. Dice the 200 grams of sushi-grade tuna into small, bite-sized cubes and place them in a mixing bowl.
Prepare the vegetables: Take 1 small cucumber and slice it into thin rounds. Peel and core 1 medium avocado, then cut it into cubes. Slice 2 stalks of green onion and 3 medium radishes thinly.
Cut the nori sheet into thin strips using kitchen scissors. Set aside for garnishing.
In a small bowl, combine 2 tablespoons of sesame oil, 1 tablespoon of soy sauce, and 1 teaspoon of rice vinegar. Add the 0.5 teaspoon of salt and 0.25 teaspoon of pepper, and stir well to combine.
Pour the dressing over the cubed tuna in the mixing bowl. Gently toss until the cubes are well coated with the dressing. Allow the tuna to marinate for about 5 to 10 minutes.
While the tuna is marinating, prepare the base of each bowl by layering 50 grams of shredded romaine lettuce per serving.
Once the tuna is marinated, assemble the poke bowl by evenly dividing the seasoned tuna over the shredded lettuce in both bowls.
Arrange the sliced cucumber, avocado cubes, green onion, and radish slices around the tuna in each bowl for a colorful presentation.
Garnish with the nori strips and 1 tablespoon of toasted sesame seeds.
Finish with a squeeze of juice from half a lime over each bowl for added brightness and serve immediately.
