Last year in Hawaii, I had Poke. Ever since then I have been craving for it and nowhere in Vancouver has it. Seattle had some but it tastes nowhere the same.
Went to Fuyija for some red tuna. Made some at home with the gf.
My presentation is nothing compared to your ones above though.

We didn't follow a recipe. The nice thing about Poke is that flavours are up to your liking. Results were good. It tasted like Da Poke Shack on the Big Island.
General ingredients:
1. ahi (red tuna) - I don't think the albacore tuna will work. Next time I will also try salmon.
2. avacado - cubed
3. sweet onions
4. green onions
5. soy sauce - used one "take-out" package for each bowl.
6. sesame oil
7. sesame seeds
8. some lemon juice
mix mix mix.
If anyone knows where to get cheaper (good quality) red tuna, that would be awesome. Mine were $4 per 100g, shown in the pics cost $20 at Fujiya.
Earls Tuna Poke Nacho is my favorite appy - I'm drooling just thinking about it.
Tried that and was very optimistic about it. But Earl's is nothing close to using Ahi, and their sauce is too sweet. Maybe it's different depending on which Earl's?
24 inch meatball sub.....ate it for lunch, snack and dinner and still have 2 inchs left haha.
