Shrimp ceviche – Nicaraguan Style

Shrimp ceviche - Nicaraguan Style

Where does ceviche originate?

Ceviche is a recipe that originates in the South American countries of Peru and Ecuador, but the fact that a dish has a country of origin does not limit it to having variations throughout the American continent.

In our country, ceviche with beer is served in restaurants called cevicherias. Here we will show you how to make this dish at home:

Ingredients

  • 2 lbs boneless fish fillet, washed and chopped
  • 1 cup lemon juice
  • 3 Tomatoes
  • 2 Onions
  • 4 Chiltomas

Preparation

  1. Cut the tomatoes, onions and peppers into very small pieces.
  2. In a cup pour the lemon juice on the fish pieces, use salt to taste and let it rest for 2hrs
  3. Mix the tomato, chili and onion with the fish and lemon juice and let it rest for 1hr
  4. We test our acid mixture to be balanced with the salt point and add to the taste any ingredient if necessary.
  5. You can use chili to taste!

Ceviche or fish ceviche is a very simple mix to prepare and at the same time a very good way to surprise families in Nicaragua with this rich delicacy.
