🌶️ 🐟 Spicy Albacore Bowl 🐟 🌶️
This Spicy Albacore Bowl is a fresh, flavorful, creamy and slightly fiery seafood experience. Served over a bed of seasoned rice, the dish features tender cubes of raw albacore tuna marinated in a chili-infused blend that can be adjusted to suit your spice preference.
A drizzle of spicy sauce adds another layer of heat, while thin slices of jalapeño provide a bold bite and refreshing crunch. Crisp cucumber and peppery radish round out the bowl, offering a refreshing contrast to the rich, savory tuna. Perfectly balanced in flavor and texture, this dish is satisfying, invigorating, and easy!
Here, inspired by Nobu’s “Crispy Rice with Spicy Tuna,” I make crispy rice cakes using an onigiri mold and top the crispy rice with slices of avocado, spicy octopus, and jalapeño for colorful appetizer. The combination of the crispy rice base and the spicy, creamy octopus creates a textural and flavorful contrast that makes it such a delightful bite.
