Blue Marlin Kajiki Poke Bowl Recipes

PACIFIC BLUE MARLIN (KAJIKI)

Steps:

• Lightly season fish with garlic salt and pepper.
• Then dust in flour and roll in egg.
• Next roll in bread crumbs.
• Heat skillet and melt butter.
• Squeeze lemon juice in and add about 1/2 the capers.
• Cook 1/2 the fish then add the rest of the capers and cook the other half.
• Be careful to not overcook as Marlin is easy to turn into leather if you do! Capers: Sort of like little olives.
• Expensive but it only takes a bit in a dish so worth it. If you don't have any, you might try green olives for a similar effect but use more and chop fine.

BASIC POKE

Steps:

• In a large bowl, combine the fish, onion, scallions, seaweed and ground kukui nuts and toss gently with a wooden spoon to mix.
• Drizzle with sesame oil and sprinkle with salt. Toss again and serve.

TRADITIONAL STYLE POKE BOWL

Steps:

• Cut the fish into 1/2- to 1-inch cubes. Combine in a bowl with the soy sauce, ponzu, sesame seeds, tobiko, sesame oil, green onions and sweet onion. Refrigerate for at least 20 minutes and up to 2 hours.
• Meanwhile, prepare rice. Rinse rice in cold water and drain until water runs clear, between 3 to 5 rinses. Add rice to a saucepan or rice cooker with 1 cup cold water. If using a saucepan, bring to a simmer over medium-high heat. Once simmering begins, reduce heat to low and let cook, covered, until no water remains, 10 to 15 minutes. Remove rice from heat and leave covered for 10 minutes, then fluff with a fork. (If using a rice cooker, you got this.)
• To serve, place your desired amount of rice in a bowl. Scoop 6 to 8 ounces poke over rice. Garnish with furikake and unagi sauce to taste. Repeat to make 3 to 5 more bowls. Enjoy!
