Peruvian Ceviche (Lime-Pickled Fish)
- 1 1/2 lbs frozen or fresh tilapia or flounder, cut in small, thin strips
- 1 lb small shrimp, de-veined, shelled, no tail
- 3 fresh limes, juiced
- 1-2 TBSP rocoto pepper sauce (or any good hot sauce)
- 1 purple onion, sliced thin
- 1 bunch fresh cilantro, chopped fine
- boiled corn-on-the-cob & sliced boiled sweet potato as side-dishes
- Mix the raw fish and shrimp in a large bowl. In a separate bowl mix the juice of the fresh limes, the rocoto pepper sauce (found in many Latin grocery stores) or any good hot sauce, the purple onion and chopped cilantro.
- Pour over the fish and shrimp and mix well. Cover and set in the fridge for 30 minutes to an hour AT MOST! Meanwhile boil 2-3 sweet potatoes in the skin, for 30 minutes. Drain, rinse in very cold water and peel, then cut into thick slices. Boil your corn on the cob with a little salt until done. Drain and serve the Ceviche with the corn and sweet potatoes, letting them sit in the lime juice dressing. Garnish with fresh cilantro and serve cold!
