| Spicy Mayo Base for sushi, great for any spicy sushi dish including poke bowls, spicy hand or cut rolls with salmon, tuna, or yellowtail |
1. Mix sauce ingredients in a LARGE BOWL
 |
 |
| Don't use too much Rooster Sauce, too much and it will overwhelm the flavor. |
I get my Tobiko from GourmetFoodStore.com, mix together gently |

2) Shred your imitation crab sticks (or add diced raw sushi-grade salmon, tuna, or yellowtail), add to the sauce and let marinade for 10-15 minutes while you slice the veggies
 |
 |
| Using a fork, shred the imitation (or real) crab. Subsitute in diced sushi-grade fish for a fancy dinner! |
This spicy fish base can be used in sushi rolls, or as a poke bowl protein base. The crab really absorbs the sauce, you can make a little less sauce for diced fish base. Let it marinade for 10-20 minutes. |
3) Prepare your fresh fruit / veggie ingredients
 |
 |
| Cut a good chunk, less than half of the cucumber. Slice four strips off the sides. Then cut the cucumber into a sheet, as shown. You'll want a sharp knife, it will take a little practise. Be careful. |
Slice the sheet into sticks.... |
 |
| Slice the sticks into short sticks, slice the center into bite-size chunks too. |
 |
 |
Florette your radishes like so.
A good sharp knive really helps here. |
And then dice as small as possible.
If you add ginger, prepare it the same way. |
 |
 |
Cut the end off your avacado, take out the seed and quarter it.
Peel off the skin, like so. |
Cut the avacado into larger bite-size chunks.
Don't cut the avacado too small or it can turn to mush when you mix it together with the other ingredients. |
 |
 |
| Slice the mango across the grain to release flavor and make it easier to chew. |
Dice the mango. |
4) Mix the all the ingredients together
 |
 |
| Here's all the ingredients. I forgot ginger this time, oops! |
Seafood salad done right! Spicy, sweet, tangy
POKE MADNESS! |
 |
Serve with the extra mango slices as a flourish / sweet desert.
It's also wonderful to grate a little orange rind on top for citrus kick! |
I'm sure you will enjoy this simple and cheap poke bowl recipe. Try it with bamboo shoots and / or water chestnuts. Experiment and make it your own with your favorite new ingredients too!
Thanks and enjoy~
