Étape 1
Mariner le poissonDans un grand bol, déposez les morceaux de poisson, l’oignon rouge émincé, le piment chili finement tranché et l’ail haché.
Étape 2
Ajouter le jus de citronVersez suffisamment de jus de citron pour recouvrir entièrement le mélange. Mélangez délicatement pour bien enrober tous les ingrédients. Couvrez et placez au réfrigérateur pendant 30 minutes à 1 heure, jusqu’à ce que le poisson devienne opaque — signe qu’il est « cuit » par l’acidité du citron.
Étape 3
Finaliser l'assaisonnementIncorporez la coriandre fraîchement hachée. Salez et poivrez selon vos préférences.
Étape 4
Dresser et servirPour une présentation traditionnelle, servez le ceviche accompagné de tranches de patate douce cuite et de grains de maïs. Vous pouvez aussi le disposer sur un lit de laitue ou de laitue iceberg pour une touche de fraîcheur et d’élégance.

Chef's tips for making this recipe
Tips for enhancing your ceviche
Use fresh white fish (bar, sea bream, cod or flounder) to ensure a perfect texture and delicate taste.
Cut the fish into small regular cubes for even cooking in lemon juice.
Do not let marinate too long : 30 to 60 minutes are sufficient for a tender ceviche. A longer marinade would make the fish rubbery.
For an authentic Peruvian ceviche, add a few drops of tiger's milk (the marinade juice), known for its intense and refreshing taste.
Variations of the ceviche recipe
Shrimp ceviche : replace white fish with cooked shrimps, perfect if you prefer a sweeter version.
Mango and avocado ceviche : add mango and avocado pieces for a fruity and exotic Peruvian ceviche.
Spicy ceviche : spice up your ceviche recipe with habanero pepper or homemade hot sauce.
Vegetarian ceviche : surprise with a version based on marinated mushrooms, pickled cucumbers and red onions — a nice alternative without fish, while still keeping the spirit of ceviche.
