Poke Patties Recipes

Steps:

• Whisk soy sauce, sesame oil, grated ginger, sliced onions, macadamia nuts, seaweed, pepper flakes, and salt together in a bowl.
• Place cubed tuna into bowl. Pour in marinade and stir to distribute evenly. Cover and refrigerate 2 hours. Mix again.
• Serve topped with toasted sesame seeds, sliced green onions, and a sprinkle of lemon or lime juice, or seasoned rice vinegar.

Steps:

• In a medium-sized bowl, combine all the patty ingredients and form 2 patties. Press patties in panko to coat. In a frying pan, heat oil over medium-high heat. Gently place patties in pan and brown on both sides, keeping the inside of the patties medium-rare.
• In a separate saute pan, add the butter and mushrooms and saute for 2 minutes. Add remaining ingredients and cook 1 minute.
• In a bowl, place a scoop of rice, 1 poke patty and pour enoki mushroom sauce on top. Sprinkle with minced green onion.

Steps:

• Cut the fish into 1/2- to 1-inch cubes. Combine in a bowl with the soy sauce, ponzu, sesame seeds, tobiko, sesame oil, green onions and sweet onion. Refrigerate for at least 20 minutes and up to 2 hours.
• Meanwhile, prepare rice. Rinse rice in cold water and drain until water runs clear, between 3 to 5 rinses. Add rice to a saucepan or rice cooker with 1 cup cold water. If using a saucepan, bring to a simmer over medium-high heat. Once simmering begins, reduce heat to low and let cook, covered, until no water remains, 10 to 15 minutes. Remove rice from heat and leave covered for 10 minutes, then fluff with a fork. (If using a rice cooker, you got this.)
• To serve, place your desired amount of rice in a bowl. Scoop 6 to 8 ounces poke over rice. Garnish with furikake and unagi sauce to taste. Repeat to make 3 to 5 more bowls. Enjoy!

Steps:

• Mix all ingredients and chill for 1 hour.
• Roast nuts whole over a grill or in a 325 degree F oven until golden brown for 90 minutes. Crack 1 kukui nut, and if it is a dark brown color, they are ready. Cool nuts, scrape out the nutmeat, and chop finely. Add Hawaiian salt, to taste.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350º. Make cake as with water, eggs and oil as directed on package for 9 x 13 pan (approx. 30 minutes); cool 15 minutes.
• Poke top of warm cake every 1/4 inch with handle of wooden spoon. In Medium bowl, beat filling ingredients with wire whisk about 2 minutes.
• Immediately pour filling evenly into holes in cake. Cover loosely and refrigerate about 2 hours until chilled.
• Place sugar, butter and milk in a medium-size saucepan over medium heat.
• Stir until the mixture comes to a boil, 3-4 minutes. Still stirring, let the mixture boil until the sugar dissolves, 1 minute. Remove pan from heat.
• Stir in chocolate chips, and continue to stir until chocolate has melted. Cool 10 minutes. Stir in peppermint extract.
• Pour/spread frosting over cake top while still warm. (frosting will firm as it cools). Chill at leat 30 minutes and store in the refrigerator.
• Can be garnished with junior mint candies, crushed peppermint sticks, or mint chocolate chips.

Steps:

• To make the pastry, combine the flour, salt, baking powder, and curry powder in a large mixing bowl. Cut the butter into small pieces and add to the bowl. Working quickly and using your fingertips, squeeze together the flour mixture and butter and toss it together by scooping under the mixture with both hands. When the mixture resembles a very coarse meal, add the water to the bowl.
• With floured hands, mix and squeeze the dough just until it forms a ball. Knead it once or twice to combine it fully (the less kneading, the better). Spread the dough into 2 pieces, flattening each into a thick pancake. Wrap in plastic and set them in the refrigerator to chill for at least 15 minutes. (The dough will keep in the refrigerator up to 5 days. Remove it from the refrigerator a few minutes before using it.)
• For filling, mix together the beef, onion, scallions, garlic, peppers, and thyme in a large bowl. In a large skillet, heat the oil over high heat until it is very hot, and add the beef mixture. Fry until the meat is brown and the moisture is evaporated, about 8 minutes. Add the curry powder, salt, and black pepper, stirring occasionally over high heat, allowing a crust to form on the bottom of the pan.
• Add the water and stir the mixture, scraping the bottom to incorporate the browned crust. Add the breadcrumbs and stir. The consistency should be like a thick stew. Add more water as needed. Cover, reduce the heat to very low, and cook for 15 minutes. Set it aside to cool.
• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Cut each piece of the dough into 9 pieces. Using a rolling pin on a floured surface, roll out each piece of pastry into a rectangle shape with rounded edges. Spread a large spoonful of the cooled meat mixture over one side of the dough, leaving at least 1/2- to 3/4-inch border on the outside edge. Using your finger, paint water around the border. Fold the other side of the dough over, and roll and crimp the edges. Lightly press a floured fork around the edge of the patty.
• Place the patty onto a cookie sheet and repeat the procedure with the remaining dough. The patties may be covered in plastic and frozen at this point for later use. Brush each patty with the egg wash and bake for 15 to 20 minutes, or until the patties begin to turn a golden color.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350°F (325°F for dark or nonstick pan). Spray bottom only of 13x9-inch pan with baking spray with flour. Make and bake cake mix as directed on box for 13x9-inch pan. Cool 15 minutes. With handle of wooden spoon, poke top of warm cake every 1/2 inch.
• In medium bowl, beat filling ingredients with whisk about 2 minutes. Immediately pour over cake. Cover loosely; refrigerate about 2 hours or until chilled.
• Stir 1/4 teaspoon peppermint extract into frosting. Spread frosting over top of cake. Sprinkle with peppermint patties. Store covered in refrigerator.
