DON CEVICHE
SEA BASS CEVICHE This is our signature dish, so-called as its really the daddy
of all our ceviches and the most popular dish we serve at Ceviche. We suggest
sea bass for this recipe, but use whatever firm-textured white fish is freshest at
the market.
Rinse the onion and then leave it to soak in iced water for SERVES 4
10 minutes. Drain thoroughly, spread out on a paper towel
or a clean kitchen towel to remove any excess water and 1 large red onion, very thinly sliced
then place in the fridge until needed. This will reduce the 11/3 lb / 600 g sea bass fillet (or other
strength of the onion and help to keep the slices crisp. white fish), skinned and trimmed
