Ceviche
Table of Contents
Inspiration
I love ceviche! I have fantastic memories of the time I spent in Peru as a teenager, and the culinary experience has never left me. Without question – the emblematic dish of Peru has to be ceviche – a delicious, light and refreshing mixture of raw fish, cold-cooked in lime juice, usually served with red onions and canchita (Peruvian toasted corn) – of course some spice is always nice.
TASTY, HEALTHY CEVICHE:
Ceviche is naturally high in protein, low in fat, and packed with vitamin C from the lime juice. It is also gluten-free and diabetic friendly.
Ingredients
- 1 pound sea bass filets, cut into 1/2-inch pieces
- ½ red onion, very thinly sliced
- 3 limes, juiced
- 1 tbsp seeded, chopped Rocoto hot pepper
- Sea salt, to taste
- Freshly cracked black pepper, to taste
- ½ cup fresh cilantro leaves
- Canchita (Peruvian toasted corn), finely chopped – you may know them as corn nuts
ESSENTIAL INGREDIENTS FOR CEVICHE:
Known as the godfather of ceviche, Javier Wong - featured on shows such as Anthony Bourdain’s Parts Unknown - once said: “ceviche only needs five ingredients: Fish, Lime, Salt, Pepper and love.” So experiment, and always use whatever seafood is the freshest.
Preparations
- In a large mixing bow, add the fish with the onion, lime juice, and rocoto.
- Season with salt and pepper.
- Toss gently to combine, making sure to coat the fish with the lime juice.
- Cover and refrigerate for 25 to 30 min
- Serve cold, garnished with canchita.
Tips
- Can’t find canchita? Try toasted pistachios or cashews instead.
- Try adding some diced tomatoes and avocado and serve with toasted corn, plantain or yucca chips.
- Experiment with different types of seafood, just get the absolute freshest.
