This next dish was originally developed in Hawaii during the 1990's and has recently gained some popularity over the last decade. The location of Hawaii is prime location for fish and other tropical fruits and vegetables. Typically the dish uses raw fish, but I wanted to substitute it with cooked salmon, but it is open to any substitution from fish to chicken.
The Poke bowl is a vibrant dish that exploits the natural colours in each ingredient and compliments the others. This is a fantastic meal for last minute dinners, but at no cost of any flavours. The savoury and sweet flavours blend marvelously to create a delicious meal for your family, or yourself.
There is minimal cooking involved as the majority of the work lies in the preparation of the vegetables, so that may be appealing to you as well. But you'll never know until to you test it out, so I present to you my recipe for my poke bowl!
