Kingfish ceviche with mango and avocado

Ceviche is a refreshing seafood dish from Latin America. Particularly popular in Peru and Mexico, it features raw fish or seafood marinated in lemon or lime juice, with the citric acid 'cooking' the protein.

Ingredients

  • 300 g sashimi-grade kingfish, diced into 1 cm cubes
  • ½ cup (125 ml) lime juice (about 4-5 limes)
  • 1 eschallot, finely chopped (or ½ red onion)
  • 1 large mango, finely chopped
  • 2 avocadoes, cut into 1 cm cubes
  • ⅓ cup torn coriander leaves
  • 1-2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
  • Toasted sourdough, to serve (optional)

Instructions

  1. In a medium bowl, combine the kingfish with half the lime juice. Season generously with sea salt, mix well and allow the fish to stand for 10 minutes to cure.
  2. When ready to serve, drain the fish in a fine mesh sieve, then transfer to a second medium bowl with the eschallot, mango, avocadoes and coriander. Season to taste with a pinch of salt.
  3. Divide the kingfish ceviche with mango and avocado between serving bowls and drizzle with the olive oil and remaining lime juice. Serve with toasted sourdough, if you like!
