Categories     Appetizer     Fish

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 pounds of white fish fillets (corvina, halibut, sea bass, tilapia, mahi mahi, snapper, cut into small square pieces)
2-3 hot peppers (can use Ecuadorian style aji peppers, red chilies, or serranos, sliced)
2-4 garlic cloves (whole but gently crushed (optional))
2-3 small red onions (use Ecuadorian style cebolla paiteña or replace with 4-5 large shallots, peeled and finely sliced)
4 tomatoes (diced)
2 bell peppers (any color, diced)
20 small to medium sized limes (separated into about 10 limes to cook the fish and 10 limes for the onion and tomato marinade)
1 bunch of cilantro (chopped as finely as possible)
2-3 tablespoon of oil (avocado oil, sunflower oil, etc)
Salt to taste
Chifles or thin plantain chips
Patacones or tostones
Tostado style corn nuts or popcorn
Aji sauce or diced hot peppers for those who want to add extra spice

Steps:

  • Place the diced raw fish in a large bowl or dish with the sliced hot peppers, garlic cloves, a tablespoon of chopped cilantro, 1-2 teaspoons of salt, and cover it with lime juice from about 10 limes, the fish should be completely covered or almost completely covered by the lime juice.
  • Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate it for about 3-4 hours.
  • Place the sliced onions or shallots in a bowl, sprinkle them with a few teaspoons of salt and add warm water (enough to cover the onions), let rest for about 10 minutes, drain and rinse well with cold water.
  • Combine the rinsed onions with the diced tomatoes and diced bell peppers. Add the juice from about 5 limes and some salt. Let this mix marinate for at least 10 minutes, it can also be prepared ahead of time and refrigerated until ready to mix with the fish.
  • Once the fish is "cooked" in the lime juice, it should be completely white, remove the sliced hot peppers and garlic cloves. Based on your preference, and the acidity level, you can keep all the lime juice where the fish cooked in, or just some of it. You can strain the liquid to remove any pieces of hot peppers (or seeds) or garlic.
  • Add the marinated onion or shallot, tomato, and bell pepper mix to the fish. Add the chopped cilantro, oil, salt and additional lime juice to taste. You can serve immediately or let it rest for another 20-30 minutes before serving.
  • Serve with chifles, patacones, popcorn or corn nuts as well as with some good hot sauce or aji.

PERUVIAN CEVICHE DE PESCADO



Peruvian Ceviche De Pescado image

Classic Peruvian Ceviche Use any combination of whitefish (I use tilapia or halibut, if you'd like to splurge, shrimp, scallop, and/or crab (lump works just fine, but don't do the salt water bath on the lump type) And must must must be served with Peruvian Aji Salsa Verde and chips!! It is not a form of salsa in the normal american idea of the word, but meaning only that it is a sauce, its nothing like the chunky sort of salsa served at latin restaurants etc. Also, can be made days in advance, the first time I made it, i made it the evening before, but sampled and it tasted just the same if not better the next evening when I served it, and the same was true a few days later with the leftovers : )

1 (6 ounce) container lump crab
salt (to add to water to tenderize fish and or or shrimp)
3/4 cup lime juice
1/4 cup lemon juice
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 garlic clove, chopped
1 -2 aji amarillo chili pepper, chopped (yellow Peruvian peppers)
1 -2 jalapeno, chopped (to taste, remove seeds for milder spice)
1 teaspoon parsley, chopped

  • To serve, line a bowl or large platter with the lettuce. Place the ceviche in the center. Surround it with 3 separate mounds: corn pieces at the top of the platter, sweet potato slices on one end, yucca on the other.
  • My personal method: pour off extra citrus mixture from ceviche (to desired combination, myself I prefer extra a little extra juice in the bottom to toss the fish back into as I'm eating); use the citrus to soak the corn, potatoes, and yuca for another 10 or 15 minutes, then drain off before serving.

CEVICHE DE PESCADO (FISH SALAD COOKED IN LIME JUICE)



Ceviche De Pescado (Fish Salad Cooked in Lime Juice) image

The appreciation of good food is one thing people all over the world have in common. When traveling around the world, dining on local cuisine is an important part of exploring different cultures and regions. On one of my first encounters with local cuisines from another country was in Lima, Peru. I had been invited there for business purposes by the then Minister of Health, Dr. Waldo Fernandez. Waldo and I had become friends when I was employed by St. Luke's/Texas Children's Hospital in Houston. As our friendship progressed, he had invited me to Peru, which I accepted My visit coincided with the convening of the Peruvian Congress of Cardiology at which I was invited to make a presentation. At the banquet that terminated the convention, I was introduced to the Peruvian National Drink - the "Pisco Sour." This drink was so delicious, I had to have the recipe and was given the original recipe by Waldo who had obtained it from the vineyard at Tabernero. I will publish this shortly. The next day, I was invited to visit the military hospital there in Lima by Dr. Jaime Contrerous, the Director of all the military hospitals in Peru. Dr. Contrerous invited me back into the patient exam area where he introduced me to a quite large gentleman on a treadmill. It turned out that this gentleman was the then "President for Life" or dictator. He was the last dictator of Peru before he stepped down and allowed free elections. "El Presidente" invited me to lunch at his personal golf course the next day. He sent his personal car to pick me up and deliver me to the golf course. When I arrived, I found a marvelous wonderland of flowers that I had never seen before. Birds of Paradise were everywhere. I was startled to see peons everywhere watering each flower by hand with huge water buckets. Other peons were cutting the grass on the course by hand using giant scissors! El Presidente had his staff set up tables on the 18th green and we were served lunch there. The first course turned out to be ceviche made with the local langostinos. Except for the sushi I had in Japan, I had never eaten raw fish before. Then El Presidente explained that the lime juice that was used in the preparation actually cooked the fish. It was so delicious, I asked for the recipe and was granted it.
