Ingredients:
Instructions:
- Start by ensuring that the tuna fish is fresh and sushi-grade. Dice the tuna into bite-sized cubes, approximately 1/2 inch pieces, and place in a medium-sized mixing bowl.
- Place a small, dry skillet over medium heat. Add the sesame seeds and toast them, stirring frequently, until they are golden brown and fragrant. This should take about 3-5 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside.
- In a small bowl, mix together the sesame oil, soy sauce, stevia leaf sweetener, and a dash of salt until the sweetener is fully dissolved and the mixture is well combined.
- Pour the dressing over the diced tuna in the mixing bowl. Gently toss to coat the tuna evenly with the dressing. Be gentle to avoid breaking up the tuna pieces.
- Add the toasted sesame seeds to the tuna mixture and gently fold them in to incorporate evenly.
- Spoon the dressed and sesame-coated tuna into serving bowls. You can serve the poke over a base of steamed rice, mixed greens, or as desired. Add any additional garnish or toppings you prefer, such as sliced avocado, diced cucumber, shredded carrots, or chopped scallions.
- Serve immediately and enjoy your fresh and flavorful Tuna Poke Bowl with Sesame Seeds and Sweet Soy Sauce!
Tips:
- Make sure to use sushi-grade tuna for the best quality and taste.
- Toast the sesame seeds lightly to enhance their nuttiness before adding them to the bowl.
- Adjust the amount of stevia leaf sweetener to your taste preference if you like it sweeter or less sweet.
- Serve the poke bowl with fresh vegetables like avocado, cucumber, and edamame for added nutrition and texture.
- Refrigerate the tuna mixture for at least 30 minutes before serving to let the flavors meld together.
