Ceviche + Leche de Tigre

Full recipe in two of my cookbooks ↓

Fresh, bright, spicy, and full of flavor: classic ceviche with its irresistible leche de tigre is one of the most iconic combinations in Peruvian cuisine. Delicate fish, lots of lime, ají, and cilantro come together with a leche de tigre you’ll want to drink straight from the bowl. I included all my favorite tips so you can recreate it at home with that authentic Peruvian flavor, perfect for warm days, gatherings, or whenever you crave a taste of Peru.
