Ingredients
Scale
1 lb sushi grade salmon, cubed
1 large ripe mango, diced
1 large ripe avocado, sliced
1 cup shelled edamame, cooked
1 cup cooked short-grain white rice (or brown rice)
2 sheets nori (seaweed), cut into thin strips
1/4 cup thinly sliced red onion
1 tablespoon sesame seeds (for garnish)
For the Soy-Ginger Dressing:
1/4 cup low sodium soy sauce
2 tablespoons rice vinegar
1 tablespoon sesame oil
1 tablespoon fresh ginger, grated
1 teaspoon honey or maple syrup
1 clove garlic, minced
Instructions
Prepare the dressing: In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, rice vinegar, sesame oil, grated ginger, honey, and minced garlic until combined. Set aside.
Prepare the base: Divide the cooked rice evenly between two bowls. This forms the base for your homemade salmon poke bowl.
Assemble the bowl: Arrange the cubed sushi grade salmon, diced mango, sliced avocado, cooked edamame, and red onion attractively over the rice in separate sections to create a colorful presentation.
Dress the bowl: Drizzle the soy-ginger dressing evenly over the salmon and vegetables.
Garnish and serve: Sprinkle the nori strips and sesame seeds over the top. Serve this mango and avocado poke recipe immediately for a vibrant food photography-worthy meal.
Notes
Use high-quality, previously frozen and thawed sushi grade salmon for safety.
For an extra layer of flavor, you can lightly toss the salmon cubes with a teaspoon of the dressing before assembling the bowl.
If you want a lower-carb option, substitute the rice with shredded lettuce or cauliflower rice.
