This was a refreshing departure from traditional Ahi Poke or tuna tartare. My version had a touch of Mediterranean flavors. I used all the ingredients called for except subbed a touch of sesame oil instead of sesame seed. I increased the amount of olives, capers, lime juice, cilantro and soy. Added a scallion and the avocado as others reported doing. I also added the zest from my lime. <br />Can’t wait to make it agh this
