Vegetarian Ceviche
– magical –

Although it seems inconceivable to think of a ceviche that doesn’t have fish or shellfish of any kind. The reality is that the vegetarian ceviche also exists and the curious thing about this recipe, is that it gives the same sensation of being eating a fish ceviche.

The secret recipe or rather the magic ingredient is the “champignon”. That is the ingredient that is used to substitute the fish and it really does a very good job.

In this ceviche what is got is a type of fresh and light salad; excellent for the sunny days. In this recipe many ingredients are mixed therefore the ceviche’s flavor can be considered very diverse – and it can be served as appetizer with a guacamole or even as main course with a white rice.

About the Recipe

If you want your ceviche to be milder, remove the seeds and the veins of the serrano pepper.

Prepare the Ceviche

1. Add in another bowl:

• The juice of 3 Limes.
• 2 tablespoons of Extra Virgin Olive Oil.
• Pepper to taste.
• 1/2 tablespoon of Salt.

2. Beat the bowl ingredients with a balloon whisk or with a fork, until they are well integrated.
3. Pour the mixture that was beaten in the bowl over the other bowl, where the ingredients that were cut are.

If you have time you can leave the ceviche resting for about 15 minutes so the flavors integrate.
