POKE PIZZA THE SIMPLE EASY WAY FOR SINGLES TO EAT IN

In Hawaii Poke (Poh keh), cubed pieces of raw fish, seasoned with usually an Asian blend of some sort, and eaten with rice is gaining popularity every day, every year by foodies that are discovering this awesome type of well, marinaded raw fish and bits of veggies. Sam Choy our local boy done good was a very popular television personality in the 90s and 2000s, his fame was attributed to frying poke in a wok. It's genius. People called him simple, nothing to write home about as a culinary artist, well bullshit, Sam Choy is one of my idols man! So I'll take a simple poke you can buy at your fish department in your supermarket, and make a pizza out of it. Below is the ingredients.

Preheat your oven to 350 deg. F

INGREDIENTS

1 lb. of ahi poke (any style)
1 loaf of french bread sliced 1/4" thick 
1 cup of mayonnaise
1/2 cup of sour cream
1/4 cup minced garlic
1/4 cup minced green onions
Garlic salt to taste
1 small package of shredded mozzarella cheese

DIRECTIONS

Take a large cookie sheet and spray some butter flavored non-stick spray. Arrange the pieces of sliced French bread. 

Mix the mayonnaise and sour cream in a mixing bowl, add in the garlic, green onions, and garlic salt, mix well. Spread a thin layer of this mixture over the French bread slices.

Place a tablespoon or so of ahi poke on each piece of bread, then top each with some mozzarella cheese. Sprinkle some more garlic salt if you think you need it.

Place baking sheet in oven on center shelf, bake for about 15 minutes or until the top is slightly brown, or whenever you feel it should be done, raw ahi is safe to eat.

Remove from oven, let sit for a minute or two, and eat.

Serve with an ice cold pale ale, or a nice white wine.

Until next time have a great life!
