Ceviche

Tostone Chips

Method

Ceviche Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Fish

    Start by cutting the fresh fish into small, bite-sized cubes.

  2. 2

    Marinate the Fish

    In a large bowl, combine the fish with fresh lime juice, making sure the fish is completely submerged. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the fish to 'cook' in the lime juice.

  3. 3

    Prepare the Vegetables

    While the fish is marinating, finely dice the red onion, tomatoes, cucumber, cilantro, and jalapeño. Set aside.

  4. 4

    Combine Fish and Veggies

    After 30 minutes, check the fish. It should be opaque and firm. Add the diced vegetables to the fish and lime juice mixture. Stir gently to combine.

  5. 5

    Season the Ceviche

    Season the ceviche with salt and black pepper to taste. Mix well and let it sit for an additional 10 minutes.

Tostone Chips Preparation

  1. 6

    Prepare the Plantains

    Peel the green plantains and cut them into 1-inch thick slices.

  2. 7

    Fry the Plantains

    In a large skillet, heat the vegetable oil over medium heat. Once hot, carefully add the plantain slices in batches and fry for about 3-4 minutes until they are golden yellow.

  3. 8

    Drain the Plantains

    Remove the fried plantains from the oil and place them on a paper towel to drain excess oil. Allow them to cool for a couple of minutes.

  4. 9

    Flatten the Plantains

    Using a flat object (like a plate or a tostonera), flatten each fried plantain slice to about 1/2 inch thickness.

  5. 10

    Fry the Tostones

    Return the flattened plantains to the hot oil and fry again for an additional 2-3 minutes until they are crispy and golden brown. Remove and drain on paper towels.

  6. 11

    Season the Tostones

    Sprinkle the tostones with salt while they are still hot to enhance flavor.
