Description
This Wasabi Tuna Poke Bowl is fresh, creamy, and packed with vibrant flavor. Tender cubes of sushi-grade tuna are coated in a lightly spicy wasabi sauce, tossed with green onions, and finished with sesame seeds and roe for the perfect balance of heat, richness, and texture.
Ingredients
For the Poke
400g sushi-grade fresh tuna, diced
2 tablespoons mayonnaise (Japanese mayo preferred)
1–2 teaspoons wasabi paste (adjust to taste)
2 tablespoons soy sauce
1 teaspoon sesame oil
2 green onions, sliced
1 tablespoon sesame seeds (black or white)
2 tablespoons tobiko or roe (optional)
For the Base
2 cups cooked sushi rice or jasmine rice
Instructions
Prepare the Rice
Cook rice according to package instructions and allow it to cool slightly. Divide evenly between two bowls.
Make the Wasabi Sauce
In a small bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, wasabi paste, soy sauce, and sesame oil until smooth and creamy.
Prepare the Tuna
Dice the sushi-grade tuna into even bite-sized cubes. Keep chilled until ready to mix.
Combine
Gently fold the tuna into the wasabi sauce. Add sliced green onions and mix carefully to coat without breaking the fish.
Assemble
Spoon the creamy wasabi tuna mixture over the rice. Sprinkle with sesame seeds and tobiko if using.
Serve
Enjoy immediately while fresh. Add avocado, cucumber, or extra sriracha for additional texture and flavor if desired.
