Added on Oct 07, 2025
For the Poke:
Pick up your choice of already made poke from your favorite Foodland OR make your own with
1/2 lb. ahi (yellowfin tuna sashimi or sushi grade) diced

1 1/2 tbsp. sesame oil
1/4 cup sweet onion thinly sliced

For the Chips:
1 pkg. Wonton wrappers
Oil

2 stalks green onions
furikake seasoning
Spicy Mayo (1/4 cup mayo + 1/4 cup sriracha)

Mix together the diced ahi, shoyu, sesame oil, green onions, and onions. Set aside and let it marinate in the fridge for about 30 minutes.

Meanwhile, in a pan or fryer heat up some oil to fry the wonton wrappers to act as the tortilla chips. Cut the wonton wrappers in half diagonally so they come out as triangles.

Gently drop the wrappers into the oil and fry until both sides are a light golden brown. Set aside on a plate lined with paper towels or chopped cabbage. Enjoy.
