Caribbean Shrimp Ceviche
This month, we're heading to the Caribbean Islands to give a lively spin on the classic shrimp ceviche. Bright, citrusy, and bursting with Island flavours, this Caribbean-style ceviche is simple and quick to make. It can be enjoyed chilled on hot summer days, served as a snack with drinks, or as a light appetiser for any gathering.
Serves: 4
Preparation time: 30-40 minutes
Ingredients
450g (1lb) medium-sized shrimp, cooked
1 lime
1 lemon
1 small red onion, thinly sliced
1 avocado, ripened and diced
2 tablespoons chives,chopped
2 medium tomatoes, diced
1 mango, peeled and diced
4 chadon beni leaves (culantro), thinly chopped
½ teaspoon black pepper
1 scotch bonnet pepper, thinly sliced (optional)
Method
Place the shrimp in a bowl, squeeze lime and lemon over them, and let marinate for about 20 minutes. You can refrigerate during this time.
Add all the other ingredients to the shrimp.
Stir well to combine all the different flavours.
Chill for another 10 - 15 minutes, then serve.
