Poke bowls are a riot of texture, colours and flavour. This bowl is a careful, balance of lean protein, fresh vegetables and the tang of wasabi peas and nori strips. The kogi sauce is a delicious twist and worth the time to whisk together.
The ingredients are interchangeable, so feel free to swap the cauliflower rice for sushi rice or broccoli rice, and add avocado or cherry tomatoes.

Method
Mix salt and sesame seeds together
Trim eye fillet of fat then roll in the sesame and salt mixture.
Sear the eye fillet in a hot pan, with a little oil for around 10 seconds each side. Set aside to rest.
Boil the jug and fill a bowl with the boiling water, for the cauliflower. In the meantime, remove the stalks from cauliflower and pulse in a food processor until crumbly. Just make sure it’s not too fine, as you want to retain some texture.
Drain and lightly season.
Blanch the edamame beans for 4 minutes in boiling water, refresh in an ice bath then drain.
Rehydrate the dried nori sheet for 20 minutes in cold water and roughly chop.
Dice the eye fillet into 8 mm cubes and dress with the Kogi sauce.
Combine the sriracha, sugar, sesame oil, rice wine vinegar and soy sauce.
Whisk in a bowl until the sugar is dissolved. Set aside.
Start with the cauliflower rice, cabbage and edamame in tidy piles, then add the beef
Fill in the gaps with the sliced cucumber, kimchi, wakame, and thinly sliced spring onion.
Dress with the kewpie mayonnaise and garnish with nori chips, lightly crushed wasabi peas and a few coriander and mint leaves.
