Salmon-avocado poke bowl

The Salmon-avocado poke bowl is a delightful fusion dish that combines fresh salmon with creamy avocado, aromatic ginger, and a hint of spice. It's a vibrant, nutritious meal that’s easy to prepare and perfect for a healthy lunch or dinner.

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Rice:
- Cook the white rice according to the package instructions. This usually involves rinsing the rice under cold water, then placing it in a pot with 1 1/4 cups of water. Bring to a boil, reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for about 15-20 minutes, or until the water is absorbed and the rice is tender.
- Once cooked, fluff the rice with a fork and let it cool to room temperature.
2. Prepare the Salmon:
- Ensure your salmon is sushi-grade and safe to eat raw. Cut the salmon into bite-sized cubes and set aside.
3. Make the Marinade:
- In a small bowl, combine the soy sauce, chili sauce, sesame oil, and minced ginger root. Mix well.
- Add a dash of salt to taste.
4. Marinate the Salmon:
- Place the salmon cubes into a bowl and pour the marinade over them. Mix gently to coat the salmon evenly.
- Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and let it marinate in the refrigerator for at least 20 minutes to allow the flavors to blend.
5. Prepare the Vegetables:
- Finely chop the 1/2 onion.
- Slice the avocado.
6. Assemble the Poke Bowl:
- Start by distributing the cooled rice into individual serving bowls.
- Divide the marinated salmon evenly among the bowls, placing it on top of the rice.
- Add the chopped onion and sliced avocado around the salmon in each bowl.
7. Garnish:
- Sprinkle 1 tbsp sesame seeds evenly over each bowl.
8. Serve:
- Your salmon-avocado poke bowl is now ready to be enjoyed! Serve immediately for the freshest taste.

Tips:

- Ensure that your salmon is very fresh; you can even use sushi-grade salmon for the best results.

- When cooking the rice, you can add a splash of rice vinegar to give it a slight tang and enhance the poke bowl's overall flavor.

- Chill your poke bowl ingredients before serving to enhance the freshness and overall experience.

- Mix the soy sauce, chili sauce, and sesame oil together before adding to the salmon to ensure even coating and flavor distribution.

- For added crunch, you can include thinly sliced cucumber or shredded carrots in your poke bowl.

Enjoy your homemade Salmon-avocado poke bowl, a refreshing, balanced, and flavorful meal that combines the best of fresh ingredients and simple preparation. Perfect for a satisfying meal that doesn't compromise on health or taste.
