Instructions
Gather all the ingredients.
Soak the dried seaweed in water for 5 minutes to rehydrate it. After soaking, squeeze out any excess water and place the seaweed on top of a bowl of rice.
Peel the cucumber in alternating strips and slice it. Place the slices next to the seaweed on top of the rice.
In a bowl, whisk together the eggs, dashi, Japanese sake, and sweetener until well combined.
Coat a frying pan with cooking oil and heat it over medium-low. Once heated, pour in the egg mixture and gently scramble with a spatula until the eggs are fluffy and cooked, about 30-45 seconds. Transfer the eggs onto the rice.
For the sauce, mix soy sauce, hondashi, and wasabi in a bowl. Stir to combine and set aside.
Pat the tuna dry with a paper towel. Using a sharp knife, slice the tuna against the grain into 1/4-inch slices. Arrange the slices in a single layer on top of the rice, next to the seaweed and cucumber. Top with chopped green onions, drizzling the sauce over the tuna, and serving.
