pokitini

Photobucket

one of the best martinis ever and there is no alcohol! Still not okay for pregnant women though. This is one of those recipes here we love it here in Southern California but most people think we are weird for loving it! Ahi is one of my absolute FAVORITE foods! But once hen out o dinner with my fiancees mom, who is from the midwest, she freaked out that "my fish wasn't cook, don't eat that! It took awhile for everyone at the table to convince her it was okay but she wasn't going near it!


ahi (tuna)
green onion sliced thin
avocado cut in small squares
pine nuts
sesame oil
sesame seeds
soy sauce

First you want to find a beautiful sushi grade piece of ahi. Next you can just cut it up or sear it for a few seconds on each side over medium heat. I prefer it raw but not everyone does. Take the pine nuts and cook them over medium heat stirring constantly until they turn slightly brown. Next mix it with the green onion, avocado, pine nuts together with a dash of sesame oil and soy sauce to taste. top with a few sesame seeds and a bit of the green onion and you have a beautiful and healthy dinner in minutes! I serve mine in martini glasses and call it a pokitini.

Enjoy!
