Preparation Steps

1

Prepare the Sweet Potato

Peel and dice the sweet potato into small cubes. Boil in salted water for about 10 minutes or until tender. Drain and set aside.

Slice the Scallops

Rinse the scallops under cold water and pat dry. Slice them into thin rounds and place them in a glass or ceramic bowl.

3

Marinate the Scallops

Pour lime juice over the sliced scallops, ensuring they are fully submerged. Cover and refrigerate for about 15-20 minutes until the scallops turn opaque.

4

Prepare the Vegetables

Finely chop the red onion, cilantro, and jalapeño pepper. Add them to the marinated scallops along with salt and black pepper.

5

Assemble the Ceviche

Gently mix all ingredients together. Serve the ceviche on a plate, topped with diced avocado, boiled sweet potato, and corn kernels.
