Salmon Poke Bowl
Build a fresh and nutritious poke bowl with sushi-grade salmon, sunomono (tangy cucumber and daikon salad), miso spinach, edamame, avocado, and any other of your favorite toppings.
Servings: 4
Ingredients
Poke Bowl:
- 2 cups Japanese short grain white rice
- 1 lb sushi-grade salmon
- cucumber daikon sunomono salad (see recipe link)
- miso sesame spinach (see recipe link)
- 1 large avocado, peeled and sliced
- 1/2 cup shelled edamame
- 1 tbsp sesame seeds
- 4 tbsp seasoned rice vinegar
- pickled ginger and soy sauce for serving
Sriracha Mayo
- 1/4 cup mayonnaise
- 1 tsp sriracha
- 1/8 tsp toasted sesame oil
Instructions
- Cook rice according to package instructions. I use a rice cooker on the Japanese rice setting.
- Using a sharp knife, slice the salmon against the grain into nigiri sushi-sized pieces.
- Prepare the cucumber daikon sunomono salad and miso sesame spinach according to recipe instructions (you can make them in advance and refrigerate).
- Prepare sriracha mayo by mixing the mayonnaise, sriracha, and sesame oil in a small bowl.
- Just before ready to serve, toss very hot rice in the seasoned rice vinegar. Use a 'shamoji' (japenese rice spatula), or a regular spatula using a folding motion to prevent rice breakage.
- Assemble poke bowls: Divide cooked rice between four bowls. Distribute and arrange the salmon, sunomono salad, miso spinach, edamame, and sliced avocado across the top of each bowl. Sprinkle with sesame seeds.
- Add a pinch of pickled ginger to each bowl.
- Serve with sriracha mayo and soy sauce on the side. (Or, add sriracha mayo to a ziplock sandwich bag, cut the corner, and drizzle it over the bowls in a zig-zag fashion.)
