Ingredients
1 cup sushi rice
1 1/4 cups water
2 tablespoons rice vinegar
1 tablespoon sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
8 ounces fresh sushi-grade tuna, diced into 1/2-inch cubes
2 tablespoons soy sauce
1 tablespoon sesame oil
1 tablespoon sriracha sauce
1 teaspoon honey
1 teaspoon grated fresh ginger
1 small cucumber, thinly sliced
1 medium carrot, julienned
1 ripe avocado, sliced
2 green onions, thinly sliced
1 tablespoon toasted sesame seeds
1 sheet nori, cut into thin strips
1 tablespoon chopped fresh cilantro
Instructions
Rinse the sushi rice under cold water until the water runs clear.
Combine the rinsed rice and 1 1/4 cups water in a medium saucepan and bring to a boil over medium-high heat.
Once boiling, reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 15 minutes until the water is absorbed and rice is tender.
Remove from heat and let the rice sit covered for 10 minutes.
In a small bowl, mix rice vinegar, sugar, and salt until dissolved.
Transfer the cooked rice to a large bowl and gently fold in the vinegar mixture. Allow to cool to room temperature.
In a medium bowl, combine diced tuna, soy sauce, sesame oil, sriracha sauce, honey, and grated ginger. Stir gently to coat and marinate for 5 minutes.
Divide the sushi rice evenly between two bowls.
Top each bowl with the marinated tuna, cucumber slices, julienned carrot, avocado slices, and green onions.
Sprinkle toasted sesame seeds, nori strips, and chopped cilantro over the top.
Serve immediately and enjoy your spicy tuna poke bowl.
