Why poke bowl with prawns is a good choice

How to get poke bowl with prawns ready
Prepare rice: Rinse the sushi rice in a sieve until the water is clear. Put the rice and water in a pan and bring to the boil, then simmer for ten minutes. Remove from the heat and let it rest with the lid on for five minutes to finish steaming.
Marinate prawns: Place the cooked prawns in a bowl with soy sauce and sesame oil. Mix them well so every prawn is coated in the dressing. Let them sit while the rice cools to room temperature.
Chop ingredients: Peel and slice the avocado into thin pieces and cut the cucumber into small cubes. Boil the edamame beans for a few minutes if they are frozen then drain them well. Keep all the vegetables separate on a plate.
Serve bowl: Spoon the cooked rice into the bottom of two serving bowls. Arrange the marinated prawns and chopped vegetables on top in sections. Garnish with sesame seeds and extra soy sauce if you like.
Tips to make poke bowl with prawns even better
You can add a little bit of spicy mayo if you want more heat in your Poke Bowl with Prawns. Squeeze some fresh lime juice over the avocado to keep it from turning brown. If you do not have edamame beans, peas or sweetcorn work well as a substitute. Pickled ginger or seaweed salad can add an authentic touch to the meal.
Make sure the rice has cooled down slightly before adding the cold toppings. Using high quality soy sauce will improve the overall depth of flavour. This recipe is very flexible and works with almost any fresh salad vegetable.
