Meet ceviche, the Peruvian seafood dish that brings sour, spicy, and refreshing all together in one magical plate. And get this—there’s no real “cooking” involved. That’s right, no burnt fish or overcooked veggies to fear—you can make this meal without even turning on the stove (unless you make the recommended side, which is also pretty easy, to be fair).
There are many variations of ceviche, but my favorite is made by my boyfriend’s dad. So in the hopes of learning how to make this drool-worthy meal, I went to him for the recipe. Don’t worry, it’s really simple to recreate, and the version here is based off of ingredients a typical student has access to, rather than harder-to-find, traditional ingredients. Feel free to experiment – adding your own personal flair is what makes each ceviche recipe so special.
