Ingredients

• 300 g sushi-grade tuna
• 3 tbsp tamari (gluten-free soy sauce)
• 1 tbsp sesame oil
• 2 tsp sriracha
• 2 tbsp mayonnaise (gluten-free)
• 2 stalks green onions, thinly sliced
• 1 small cucumber, diced
• 1 medium avocado, diced
• 2 cups cooked sushi rice or cauliflower rice (optional)
• 1 tsp toasted sesame seeds
• 2 sheets nori sheets, cut into thin strips
• 0.5 tsp red chili flakes (optional, for extra spice)

Directions

Step 1

Begin by preparing the tuna. Using a sharp knife, cut the sushi-grade tuna into small, bite-sized cubes (approximately 1-2 cm in size). Set aside in a mixing bowl.

Step 2

In a small bowl, whisk together the tamari, sesame oil, sriracha, and gluten-free mayonnaise until smooth to create the spicy sauce.

Step 3

Pour the spicy sauce over the cubed tuna in the mixing bowl. Gently toss to coat the tuna evenly. Cover the bowl and refrigerate for 10 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.

Step 4

While the tuna marinates, prepare the toppings. Thinly slice the green onions, dice the cucumber and avocado, and cut the nori sheets into thin strips.

Step 5

If using sushi rice or cauliflower rice, prepare it according to package instructions and divide it evenly between two serving bowls.

Step 6

Remove the marinated tuna from the refrigerator and divide it over the prepared base (rice or cauliflower rice) in the bowls.

Step 7

Top each bowl with diced cucumber, avocado, green onions, nori strips, and a sprinkle of toasted sesame seeds. For added heat, sprinkle a pinch of red chili flakes if desired.

Step 8

Serve immediately and enjoy your Gluten-Free Spicy Tuna Poke!
