Directions
Combine salmon, sesame oil, ginger and makrut lime leaves (or zest) in a medium bowl. Refrigerate, stirring once, for 30 minutes.
Meanwhile, position rack in upper third of oven and preheat broiler to high. Place green peppers on a baking sheet and broil, turning once, until the skins are blistered on all sides, about 6 minutes. Transfer to a small bowl and cover with plastic wrap. Let steam for 5 minutes. Remove skin and seeds and coarsely chop the peppers. Set aside.
Whisk tamarind concentrate, citric acid (or lime juice), fish sauce, calamansi (or lemon) juice, Thai chiles and ground pepper in a small bowl until smooth. Massage the mixture into the chilled salmon. Let stand for 5 minutes.
Combine tomatoes, chili oil and 1/4 teaspoon salt in a medium bowl. Using a slotted spoon, transfer the salmon mixture to the bowl with the tomatoes (discard the tamarind marinade). Stir in red onion, scallion whites and the roasted peppers. Serve the poke in lettuce leaves and sprinkle with furikake, scallion greens and flaky salt, if desired.
Tips
Fish sauce is the ultimate umami sauce. Seek out one made with just anchovy, salt and water for the best flavor.
A tart and floral relative of the kumquat, calamansi is the predominant citrus used in Filipino cooking. Look for the juice bottled or frozen. Lime or lemon juice can be substituted.

Nutrition Facts(per serving)
- Daily Values (DVs) are the recommended amounts of nutrients to consume each day. Percent Daily Value (%DV) found on nutrition labels tells you how much a serving of a particular food or recipe contributes to each of those total recommended amounts. Per the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), the daily value is based on a standard 2,000 calorie diet. Depending on your calorie needs or if you have a health condition, you may need more or less of particular nutrients. (For example, it’s recommended that people following a heart-healthy diet eat less sodium on a daily basis compared to those following a standard diet.)
