Purple Sweet Potato Poke

I think this dish should be considered salad instead of poke but I include it here to demonstrate how far the boundaries of the traditional dish have been expanded.

Ingredients

2 pounds purple sweet potatoes, roasted, peeled and cut into 1/2 inch cubes

1 small sweet onion, diced

1 green onion, very thinly sliced

3 tablespoons cilantro leaves, torn into pieces

1 teaspoon red pepper flakes

1/3 cup soy sauce

Hawaiian alaea salt, lightly crushed

2 tablespoons crushed macadamia nuts

Directions

Put the sweet potatoes into a bowl, add the onions, cilantro and red pepper flakes and toss gently.
Add the soy sauce and toss again.
Transfer to a serving platter, sprinkle the salt and the nuts on top and serve.
