Salmon poke bowl

Ingredients

Rice:

• 134 g round rice
• Water (to remove starch)
• 240 ml water (for cooking)
• 2 cl rice vinegar
• 3 g salt (2 tsp)
• 14 g sugar (2 tbsp)

Marinated salmon:

• 150 g frozen salmon (1 fillet)
• 1 tbsp soy sauce
• 1 tbsp sesame oil
• 3 g ginger (1 piece about 3 cm)
• 1 tsp lemon zest (optional)
• 1 tsp sesame seeds (optional)

Toppings:

• 70 g mango (1/2 mango)
• 2 radishes
• 70 g cucumber (1/4 cucumber)
• 30 g carrot (1/2 carrot)
• 40 g edamame (soybeans)
• 60 g avocado (1/2 avocado)
• 1 tsp lemon juice
• 1 tbsp sesame seeds

Materials

• bowl, pot, cutting board, knife

Preparation

• Wash the rice to remove the starch. Rinse the rice several times until the water runs clear.
• In a pot, combine the rice and cold water. Cover. When the water boils, reduce the heat and cook covered for 10 to 15 minutes. (When the rice has absorbed all the water, it's ready). Turn off the heat and let it rest covered for 10 minutes.
  
• Mix the vinegar, salt, and sugar. Incorporate the mixture into the rice. Mix gently. Finally, cool the rice on a cold plate or tray.
• Cut the thawed salmon into cubes. Mix it with soy sauce, sesame oil, crushed ginger, and if desired, lemon zest and sesame seeds. Cover and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
  
• For the toppings:
  Wash the vegetables. Peel the carrot and chop or grate it. Cut the radishes and cucumber into thin slices. Cut the avocado and mango into cubes. Pour some lemon juice over the avocado to prevent browning.
• Assembly:
  Place the seasoned rice at the bottom of a deep plate. Add the salmon marinade in the center, then arrange all the vegetables and fruits around: cucumbers, then carrots, then edamame, then radishes, then avocado, and finally mango to avoid having two green ingredients side by side.
  
• Sprinkle some sesame seeds on top, and there you have it, your poke bowl is ready!

Observations

Rice:
You can replace it with black rice or quinoa.

Marinated salmon:
*You must use frozen salmon or freeze it before use. Be careful with the fish bones!
*You can replace the salmon with fresh tuna, shrimp, tofu, or bream. You can also make fishballs or falafels if you don't like raw fish.

Vegetables and fruits:
We had to choose... and it was difficult!
For vegetables, you can opt for red cabbage or wakame seaweed.
For fruits, we also suggest pineapple or pomegranate.
We chose sesame seeds as a topping, but feel free to be generous and add roasted peanuts, green onions, cilantro, fried onions, cashews... anything is possible! :D
