🍽 Ingredients
📖 Instructions
- First things first, prep your fish! Make sure your fish fillets are super fresh (I usually head to my local fish market. They always have the best selection!), and thoroughly cleaned. Cut the fillets into 1/4-inch dice. I know, dicing fish can seem intimidating at first, but it’s way easier than you think. Just take your time and be careful!
- Next, grab that lime juice and pour it over the diced fish. Make sure all the pieces are completely submerged. I usually use about 1/2 cup for a 1x serving, but adjust based on the amount of fish. Let it sit for at least 15-20 minutes, giving it enough time to 'cook'. Oh, and don't be surprised if you see the fish change color. That's the magic of acid doing its work!
- While the fish is marinating, let's whip up that amazing passion fruit dressing! Strain the passion fruit pulp to remove any seeds, which is super simple, and set aside. Grab your mixing bowl and whisk together 2 tablespoons of passion fruit pulp, 2 tablespoons of lime juice, 1 tablespoon of olive oil, and a pinch of salt. Taste it as you go and adjust the seasoning. And add a tiny dash of honey to balance that zingy-ness.
- After the fish has marinated, drain any excess lime juice. This helps balance out the flavors. Gently combine the marinated fish with the passion fruit dressing. See how that vibrant color just pops? It's almost too pretty to eat...almost!
- Now comes the fun part — garnishing! I like to sprinkle some finely chopped cilantro and a dash of red pepper flakes. Red pepper flakes are optional, and add a nice little kick. You can also add a tiny bit of finely diced red onion, or some sliced avocado for creaminess. The possibilities are endless!
- Finally, serve your ceviche! I like to use small bowls and chill it for a bit to ensure it's perfectly refreshing and ready to eat. Enjoy every single bite and please tell me all about your experience with it! I love hearing how others enjoy this delicious recipe! Maybe you’ll even try and improve on it! I'd love to hear your suggestions too!
📝 Notes
- Make sure to use the freshest fish possible.
- Adjust lime juice to your liking. It is better to start with less and add more gradually to prevent over-acidification.
- Don't marinate for too long. Over-marinated fish will be mushy and lose its flavor.
