Ingredients - serves 2
Fish
- 180g of Sashimi grade salmon or tuna. Make sure you find yourself a good fishmonger because anything less than fresh will ruin your Poké! (and your day...)
- 2 tspn Black Sesame Seeds
- 1 tspn Sesame Oil
- 1 tspn Tamari (Gluten Free Soy sauce)
Base
Get creative with your base! Typically steamed brown or pink rice are popular options but you could also use quinoa, cauliflower rice or a green base of veggies for a lower carb option.
Toppings
Again, you can get as creative with your toppings as you like and it's all about personal taste and getting as many different colours and nutrients in your bowl as possible. Below is our go-to combo:
Avocado
Edamame
Finley Siced Red Cabbage
Zoodles (Zucchini Noodles) tossed with a tiny bit of Kewpie Mayo and Sesame seeds
Kim Chi
Pickled Ginger
Grated Carrot
Spicy Siracha Dressing
3/4 tbspn of Tamari
1 tbspn rice wine vinegar
1/2 tbspn Siracha
1/2 tbspn freshly grated ginger
2 tspn sesame oil
Method
1. Steam the rice/quinoa/veggies for your base
2. Toss your fish together with the Tamari, Sesami Oil and Sesame Seeds and set aside.
3. Make your zoodles by putting washed zucchini through a Spiraliser. Then simply add coconut oil to a warm pan and sauté the zoodles until soft. Remove, season with salt and pepper, toss through Kewpi mayo and top with sesame seeds. Set aside to cool. If you're too busy for this part babe switch for some fresh spinach leaves.
4. In a separate bowl, whisk together the ingredients for the dressing.
5. To serve, put your choice of base in the bottom of the bowl, arrange your toppings around the bowl and top with your fish and dressing.
Now for the best bit, EAT!
