Ingredients 

For the Watermelon Poke

  • 1000 grams (2.2lb) seedless watermelon skin removed and cut in to 1 cm cubes
  • ¼ cup (80ml) rice vinegar
  • ¼ cup (80ml) tamari
  • 2 tbs (40ml) sesame oil toasted if possible
  • zest of 1 lime
  • juice of 1 lime
  • 1 teaspoon white miso paste
  • ½ tablespoon ginger finely grated
  • 1-2 tablespoon maple syrup or brown sugar

For the Bowl

  • 1-2 cups cooked quinoa or sushi rice
  • 1 avocado peeled and cubed

Instructions

  • Place the cubed watermelon in a medium bowl.
  • Combine the vinegar, sesame oil, tamari, lime juice, miso and ginger in a blender and blend until smooth.
  • Pour the marinade over the watermelon and cover the bowl with film. Place in the fridge to "cure" for at least a few hours or overnight. Gently stir one or twice. 
  • Spoon a cup of quinoa in to a bowl, followed by a few good spoons of the watermelon. Add cubed avocado and sprinkle with fresh herbs. To finish, drizzle with a little more of the marinade.
