You can find this appetizer all over Hawaii, it is a raw tuna salad that my aunt makes. During the hot summer months, it is especially refreshing as a mini entree! Cold, tasty and good for you! Ingredients:
1 1/4 pounds ahi tuna, cut into 1/2 inch cubes |
1/4 cup minced onion |
1/4 cup minced green onion |
1 teaspoon minced fresh ginger |
2 tablespoons lightly crumbled wakame seaweed |
1 tablespoon ground roasted macadamia nuts |
2 teaspoons sesame oil |
1 1/2 teaspoons crushed red pepper flakes |
8 leaves iceberg lettuce |
2 tablespoons cilantro leaves, for garnish |
Directions:
1. Mix together the ahi tuna, minced onion, green onion, ginger, seaweed, macadamia nuts, sesame oil, and red pepper in a mixing bowl. Cover and refrigerate at least one hour, for the flavors to come together. Arrange the lettuce leaves on a serving platter, spoon the ahi poke on top, and garnish with the cilantro. |
