Salmon Poke Bowl: An Easy Recipe

If you haven't yet caught on to the healthy, gourmet poké bowls from Hawaii, the following recipe might get you started. This salmon poke bowl is easy to make using frozen rice and raw vegetables. It is even suitable for people who don't like raw salmon as I suggest you prepare it with salmon tataki.

Ingredients

Here are the ingredients needed to make a salmon poke bowl for 2 people:

300 g of brown rice, green lentils and red Quinoa (sold at Picard)
2 salmon steaks without the skin
1 ripe avocado
half a cucumber
1 bunch of radishes
1 carrot
2 tablespoons of soy sauce
1 tablespoon of honey
1 pinch of ginger powder
sesame seeds

Preparation of the rice

To make this homemade salmon avocado poke bowl easier, I used a mixture of brown rice, green lentils and frozen red quinoa.

1- Cook this mixture according to the instructions on the package.

Failing that, you can cook rice and season it with a drizzle of olive oil.

2- Let the rice or mixture cool at room temperature before dividing it into the bottom of two bowls.

Preparation of the salmon tataki

1- Mix the soy sauce with the honey and ginger.

2- Marinate the salmon steaks in this mixture for 15 minutes.

4- Cook them in a very hot pan without adding fat. Count 1 minute on one side and 30 seconds on the other side so that the salmon tataki is seared on the outside and pink on the inside.

5- Slice the salmon before assembling the salmon poke bowl.
