Provided by mahto

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 pound yellowfin tuna steak, sushi or sashimi grade (fresh or flash frozen)
1 tablespoon soy sauce, to taste
1/2 tablespoon sesame oil, to taste
2 scallions, chopped finely
1/4 onion, sliced (optional)
2 tablespoons mayonnaise or Japanese mayonnaise
2 tablespoons Sriracha sauce, or to taste
2 teaspoons tobiko or masago (optional)

Steps:

If tuna is frozen, thaw by submerging in room temperature water for 30 minutes. When tuna is almost completely thawed, slice into small 1-inch cubes (it's easier to slice when still chilled). Combine in a bowl with 1 tablespoon soy sauce, 1/2 tablespoon sesame oil, and 1 chopped scallion. Chill in fridge for about 30 minutes. Combine mayo, Sriracha, remaining scallions (reserving a bit for topping), and 1 tablespoon tobiko or masago, whisking briefly until combined. When tuna is chilled, add the spicy mayo and mix gently with your hands until fully coated. Top with a bit more tobiko and scallions, and serve with rice and any of your other favorite poke ingredients. You can also add toasted sesame seeds for a nice crunch. The poke will be good for up to one day, but is best eaten fresh.
