Ahi Poki
By Jan_Fowler
Serve as an entree dish with steamed rice or as a salad over seaweed or shredded lettuce.
Recommend using sushi grade #1 ahi or yellowtail tuna.
Poki doesn't keep well, so make only as much as you're sure to eat in one sitting.
If served as an appetizer, place bowl on a bed of ice to prevent tuna from graying.
