Peruvian Ceviche
- 250 grams seabass
- 8 limes
- 8 cilantro stalks
- 1 garlic clove
- 5 mm ginger
- 100 grams sweet potato
- 1 red onion
- 2 tsp aji amarillo paste
- Roughly chop half the cilantro, the garlic and the ginger.
- Put it in a bowl.
- Squeeze the juice of 8 limes and mix it into the bowl with the cilantro, garlic and ginger.
- Set aside for 5-10 minutes.
- Dice the sweet potato.
- Boil until cooked but not too soft.
- Cool in cold water.
- Cut the red onion in half.
- Thinly slice into half rings.
- Put the slices in a bowl with cold water for 5 minutes.
- (this helps get rid of the sharp raw onion flavor)
- Pass the marinade through a colander to remove the cilantro, garlic and ginger.
- Add the aji amarillo and some salt to taste.
- Cut the seabass into strips about 2x1 cm.
- Add a pinch of salt and mix
- Mix the marinade in with the seabass.
- Let it sit for 10-15 minutes.
- The acidity of the lime will 'cook' the fish.
- In the meantime, cup the rest of the cilantro leaves.
- After the fish has 'cooked', mix in the sweet potato, cilantro and onions in with the fish.
- Serve and easy immediately.
- Optional: garnish with toasted corn kernels.
