CEVICHE
Ceviche,
also known as seviche or cebiche, is an
everyday fish salad eaten throughout the
Islands of the Caribbean and all over Latin
America. While marinating the fish in lime
juice appears to "cook" it, be
aware that the fish is raw. You will need
approximately 10 limes for this recipe.
1
kg redfish fillets
1 1/2 cups fresh lime juice
1/4 cup canned jalapeño chili slices,
drained
1/4 cup olive oil
1 large tomato, chopped coarsely
1/4 cup coarsely chopped fresh coriander
leaves
1 small white onion, chopped finely
1 clove garlic, crushed

Remove
any remaining skin or bones from fish; cut fish
into 3 cm pieces.
Combine
fish and juice in non-reactive large bowl, cover;
refrigerate 4 hours or overnight.
Drain
fish; discard juice. Return fish to bowl, add
remaining ingredients; toss gently to combine.
Cover; refrigerate 1 hour.
Serves
4.
TIP:
Fish must be marinated with the lime juice in
a non-reactive bowl (one made from glazed porcelain
or glass is best), to avoid the metallic taste
that can result if marinating takes place in a
stainless-steel or an aluminum bowl. Ensure all
of the fish is completely covered with juice.
