1

Prepare the Rice

Start by cooking 1 cup of sushi rice according to the package instructions. Once cooked, fluff it up with a fork and let it cool to room temperature.

2

Prepare the Marinade

In a bowl, whisk together 3 tablespoons of soy sauce, 1 tablespoon of sesame oil, 1 tablespoon of rice vinegar, and a pinch of red pepper flakes for some extra heat. Set the marinade aside.

Slice the Avocado

Carefully slice a ripe avocado in half and remove the pit. Then, using a knife, make crosshatch cuts on the avocado flesh. Gently scoop out the diced avocado with a spoon and set it aside.

4

Prepare the Fish

Dice 1 pound of fresh sushi-grade fish (such as tuna or salmon) into bite-sized cubes. Place the fish in a bowl and pour the marinade over it. Gently toss to ensure all the pieces are coated. Let the fish marinate for 10 minutes.

5

Assemble the Bowl

In a large bowl, arrange a bed of cooled sushi rice. Top it with the marinated fish, sliced avocado, 1 cup of imitation crab meat, a handful of mixed greens, and any other desired toppings like cucumber or edamame. Sprinkle some sesame seeds on top for added crunch and flavor.

Garnish and Serve

Drizzle some additional soy sauce or sriracha mayo over the bowl for extra flavor. If you like it spicy, sprinkle some more red pepper flakes. Serve your California-style Poke Bowl chilled and enjoy the delightful combination of flavors!
