Wonton:
20 each Store bought wonton, cut into circles
Method:
Fry wontons in oil at 325 degrees for 90 seconds. Flip each wonton once for even cooking. Remove from oil and lightly season with salt. Serve cool as the base of the Ahi Tuna Poke.

1 Pound Ahi Tuna, small diced
2 Tablespoons Shallots, minced
1 Tablespoons Green Onions, thinly sliced

2 Tablespoons Soy Sauce
2 Tablespoons Sesame oil
Preparation:
Mix all ingredients together in a bowl, except for tuna. Once this is done, add all the tuna to the bowl and lightly mix. Let poke sit for five minutes so tuna can soak in the flavors. Serve cold.
