I wonder if adding red or green curry paste to this would improve the "milky" color? Certainly adds heat and flavor - but would have to be renamed Thai or Asian Tuna Poke .. ?

This recipe is outstanding. Although the addition of lime reflects a more south pacific preparation (similar to ceviche than a true Hawaiian poke, the combination of flavors was nothing short of delicious, and made for a light, refreshing dinner. The addition of coconut milk was also a nice twist on the traditional Hawaiian poke, and matched well with the other flavors. I did reduce the amount of coconut milk and peanut butter so that the end product was less "saucy." I served the poke over a bed of fresh corn tortilla chips which worked great. Next time, I may try the full "saucy" version of the recipe over a bed of rice.
