8 oz. Fresh Ahi, diced
1 medium cucumber, diced into 1/4" pcs
1 medium tomato, diced into 1/4" pcs
1/2 round onion, diced into 1/4" pcs
juice from 1 fresh lime
1/4 cup green onion, chopped
1 Tbs cilantro, chopped
pinch of chili flakes
2 cups fresh shredded coconut, grated for
squeezing in cheesecloth
cilantro to garnish
Place the shredded coconut in a bowl and pour 1/2 cup
warm water over it. Let it sit while you're preparing
the other ingredients. Dice the Ahi, cucumber, tomato,
and onion, and place in a mixing bowl. Chop the green
onion and cilantro, then add to the other ingredients.
Add a pinch of chili flakes. Squeeze the lime juice into
the bowl. Gently stir all of the ingredients together.
Pour all of the coconut and its liquid into the cheesecloth.
Squeeze the cheesecloth tight over the bowl with the poke
ingredients, so that the liquid streams onto the poke.
Gently toss to coat the Ahi with the coconut water. Place
on serving plate, and garnish with cilantro and lime slices.
