How to make (Step-by-Step Instructions)
- Bring a pot of water to boil, enough for batches of shrimp. Toss in your 1/2 White Onion, garlic cloves, bay leaf and juice your Orange into water.
- Once pot comes to a boil begin tossing in your shrimp, watch closely. Leave shrimp in until a change of color, but not too cooked. Roughly about 20-30 seconds. Then remove shrimp and place into a strainer. Continue process until all shrimp have been parboiled.
- Once parboiled shrimp have cooled down, begin chopping into smaller bite-sized pieces. You can even use a food processor in the chop setting for a few blitz.
- Soak chopped shrimp in the lime/lemon juice. Ensure all of the shrimp is submerged in the juice. You can add a bit of salt and pepper. Let it soak for at least 3-4 hours. Place in fridge.
- Remove Shrimp from fridge after 3-4 hours and drain out the lemon juice into your blender. Blend your lemon juice and ketchup together to mix properly. You can add salt & pepper to taste.
- Mix all your diced and chopped ingredients into a large mixing bowl.
- Pour in your ketchup/lime juice blend and mix everything in. Taste for salt & pepper.
That's it. You have your completed ceviche. My servings size might be wrong, as I measure with my heart.
You can pair this with tostadas or tortilla chips, top it off with avocado and salsa of your choosing.
