Ingredients

  • 1 carrot spiralized
  • 1/2 cup red cabbage chopped
  • 2 large slices grapefruit
  • 1/2 avocado sliced
  • 1/2 cup cucumber chopped
  • 1/2 cup sprouts
  • 4 green onions sliced

Poke

  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 16 oz tuna steak
  • Salt & pepper to taste
  • Sesame seeds for garnish
  • 2 tbsp soy sauce
  • habanero sauce, to serve (recipe below)

Habanero sauce

  • 5 habanero or scotch bonnet peppers de-seeded
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • 1 tbsp vinegar
  • 1/2 tsp salt

Brown rice

  • 2 1/2 cups water
  • 1 cup brown rice
  • 1 tsp butter
  • 1 pinch salt

Instructions

  • Cook all the ingredients under the brown rice heading in a rice cooker or a pot on the stove until liquid has fully absorbed, about half an hour.
  • Meanwhile, season tuna steak with salt, pepper and sesame seeds, making sure tuna is coated. Make the habanero sauce by adding all ingredients under that heading to a small blender or food processor.
  • Divide vegetables into four large bowls. Divide cooked brown rice among each bowl, and set aside.
  • Heat 1 tbsp olive oil in medium frying pan over high heat. Once oil is close to smoking, add tuna, cooking for about 30-45 seconds per side.
  • Remove from heat and let sit for a couple of minutes before cubing and tossing with soy sauce and a pinch of habanero sauce. Divide tuna among bowls. Use additional soy sauce and habanero sauce for the rest of the bowl as well to taste, or add spicy mayo and enjoy!

Notes

Swap out the tuna steak for sashimi-grade salmon.
Store these bowls in the fridge for up to 3 days.
Freeze the brown rice for up to 1 month. Defrost in the fridge overnight then microwave for 3-5 minutes.
