Instructions

  1. Prepare the Rice: Combine rice and water in a saucepan, bring to a boil, then cover and simmer for 15-20 minutes. Mix rice vinegar, sugar, and salt, then stir into the cooked rice. Set aside to cool.
  2. Prepare the Tofu: Press tofu to remove moisture, then cut into cubes. Mix soy sauce, sesame oil, rice vinegar, maple syrup, sriracha, ginger, garlic, and green onions. Toss tofu in this marinade for 15-20 minutes, then sprinkle with sesame seeds before serving.
  3. Prepare the Toppings: Slice avocado, cucumber, radish, and shred carrots. Cook edamame if necessary, and set aside all toppings.
  4. Make the Dressing: Whisk together soy sauce, sesame oil, rice vinegar, maple syrup, sriracha, and ginger.
  5. Assemble the Bowl: Place seasoned rice in each bowl, then top with marinated tofu, avocado, edamame, carrots, cucumber, radish, and optional toppings like seaweed salad and pickled ginger.
  6. Drizzle the Dressing: Pour dressing over the assembled poke bowl, then garnish with green onions and sesame seeds.
  7. Serve: Serve immediately and enjoy!

Notes

Swap tofu for tempeh, chickpeas, or grilled mushrooms if preferred.

Add more vegetables like bell peppers, sweet potato, or mango for added flavor and texture.

For a spicier poke bowl, increase the amount of sriracha in the marinade or add chili flakes to the dressing.
