Toppings
NOTES*
The base, centre spot of your poké can be occupied by any number of grains. You could use :black/ wild/ white rice, or bulgar wheat, or even couscous.
For the protein source, I love adding omelette ribbons and have often swapped that for spiced chickpeas or feta. Traditionally, Hawaiian pokés were served with raw ahi tuna or salmon.
For the sprinkles, I have used pul biber (Aleppo pepper,) here - but my prefered sprinkle is definately Japanese shichimi togarashi.
For the sweet, fruity spot, I have used watermelon here - but have used mango, flat peach, ripe plums, figs, and pommegranate arils - take your pick!
switch & swap - this has got to be one of the most versatile dishes. Add whatever floats your veggie boat: cooked beetroot, kimchi, pesto, alficoz, mangetout ...!
Method
Hawaiian-inspired poké bowls
after prepping your ingredients, Simply start with your rice in a small mound in the centre and arrage all the fruit & veg around it. Then add your protein* in the middle (on top of the rice).
Drizzle over the poké sauce before zigzagging kewpie mayonnaise across the top.
To serve, sprinkle over your spice choice and fresh herbs.

Sabich s’wich
Probably the best vegetarian sandwich I’ve ever eaten. The sabich was brought to Israel by Iraqi jews fleeing persecution in the 1940s and 1950s; originally, a humble salad dish of fried aubergine, boiled potatoes and eggs, made portable by placing it in a fluffy pita bread: the sabich sandwich was born. In this tweaked version,…
