Mango Ceviche Tostada

For the Fish:

 

  • 1 lb Grouper fillet, diced in 1/2 inch cubes.
  • 1 cup of freshly squeezed lime juice, strained.
  • ½ tsp dry, Mexican oregano, crumbled in your hand
  • 1 tsp sea salt

 

Put the fish, lime juice, oregano and salt in a small narrow container. Mix well and let it sit in the refrigerator for 2 hours, stirring with a spoon midway to mix everything well. At this point if it’s not cooked enough I would drain the liquid out (discard liquid) and add another ½ cup of lime juice, mix it in the ceviche and let it sit in refrigeration for another hour. Then drain the fish and discard the juice.

 

For the sauce:

 

  • 1 ripe mango (but still a little firm) diced in ¼ cubes. (about 3/4 cup)
  • 1/2 green apple, cored, peeled and diced in ¼ inch cubes.
  • 1/4 cup jicama, peeled and diced in ¼ inch cubes
  • 2 tbsp white vinegar
  • 1/2 chile de arbol*, wiped clean, lightly toasted, and cut in thin round slices. Discard the tail and the seeds. (or a dash of Cholula Sauce).
  • 1/2 cup mango juice
  • 4 tsp of diced red onion
  • ½ garlic clove finely diced
  • 1 tsp grated fresh ginger
  • 1 loose tbsp of chopped cilantro
  • salt to taste

 

Put everything in a mixing bowl and mix with a spoon. Adjust salt and serve over crunchy tostadas. You can also serve it family style with tortilla chips.

 

*Note: Be very careful with the arbol pepper, a small pinch will make the whole ceviche very spicy.
