Peruvian Ceviche - Not the same as Mexican/Baja Ceviche
The biggest item I noticed here, was the lack of Ketchup as a Tomato base. Instead, a spicy Peruvian Tomato base filled that void. The finished
product had less of a sugary/tangy flavor reminiscent of Baja Mexico Ceviche. The other feature was the large chunks of Tilapia fish cured in
Lime/Lemon juice. This was SO AMAZING!!!

I saw that it was "Farm-Raised" - my Dr. told me never to eat "Farm-Raised" Fish. This was my Wife's new friend. Not sure if would have gone over
well had I taken such a hard-line approach to this person I had never met before.

Looks delicious.
My Peruvian friends make a similar ceviche with Tilapia with no tomatoes, no red onions but has a strong Cumin presence.
No worries

I had ceviche at a "Mexican restaurant" in Laguna and it was horrible! They use vinegar and some really mushy fish.

My wife is from peru and she never uses tomatoes. And they marinade the fish in limes rather than lemons.

real Peruvian ceviche has 1inch wheels of cooked sweet potato and wheels of corn on the cob that is marinating along with the fish. and the real fish
is curvina or white seabass.

I looked at seabass, but wasn't sure how the flavor would translate vs. Tilapia. Thanks, I'll let our friend know this the next time she offers to
come over and cook at our house.

Name the weekend, Woody.
BTW, I found two of the glass fishing floats at a swap meet in Orange County last weekend.
$30.00 each.

Woody - I have invited you to meet other South Americans here at my house more than twice. If I live too far away, you just have to imagine how good
all of the food tastes!
With Amigos...

Another Great Peruvian Ceviche Recipe
Gently mix together scallops, shrimp, garlic, roasted corn kernels, red onion finely diced, cilantro, sweet potato diced, deseeded thinly sliced
habanero, celery diced, and1 cup lime juice.
Season mixture with salt and pepper, and let sit on ice or refrigerate for 15-20 minutes, but no more than 30 minutes prior to serving. Additional
cilantro on top.
Bloody Good......

The house will turn into a fiesta when the music gets turned up and the food makes its way to the Comedor.
