Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 8 ounces sushi-grade tuna
- 1 large avocado
- 0.5 medium cucumber
- 2 stalks green onions
- 1 tablespoon toasted sesame oil
- 2 tablespoons tamari (gluten-free soy sauce)
- 1 tablespoon sriracha (or keto-friendly hot sauce)
- 1 teaspoon rice vinegar
- 1 teaspoon sesame seeds
- 0.25 cup seaweed salad (optional, for garnish)
- 0.5 whole lime
- 1 cup cauliflower rice (optional, for serving)
Instructions
Ensure your sushi-grade tuna is fresh. Pat it dry with a paper towel and cut it into small cubes (about 1/2 inch in size). Place the tuna in a medium-sized mixing bowl.
Dice the avocado into cubes of similar size as the tuna and add it to the bowl.
Thinly slice the cucumber and green onions. Add both to the bowl with the tuna and avocado.
In a small bowl, whisk together the toasted sesame oil, tamari, sriracha, and rice vinegar to create the spicy sauce.
Pour the spicy sauce over the tuna mixture. Gently toss the ingredients together to ensure everything is evenly coated without breaking up the avocado.
Squeeze the juice of half a lime over the mixture and sprinkle with sesame seeds. Toss again briefly to distribute the flavors.
To serve, divide the poke mixture between two bowls. For a more filling meal, serve it over a bed of cauliflower rice. Optionally, garnish with a small amount of seaweed salad.
