BETO'S PERUVIAN-STYLE CEVICHE

Steps:

• For the ceviche: Combine the tilapia, lime juice, diced aji amarillo, parsley, olive oil, garlic, aji amarillo paste, salt, pepper and onion in a large mixing bowl and mix well. Cover and chill to marinate, at least 4 hours and up to 24 hours.
• For assembly: Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F. Roast the corn in the oven until tender, about 30 minutes. Let the corn cool 10 minutes before shucking and cutting cross-wise into 1-inch pieces. Set aside.
• Heat a deep-fryer or large skillet with oil to 350 degrees F. Deep fry the sliced sweet potato until tender and set aside.
• Place 4 ounces of the ceviche per bowl. Place 3 slices of fried sweet potato and 3 sections of roasted corn on each plate. Sprinkle the chili powder over the sweet potato and corn, and top the corn with the Cotija cheese. Place one bowl on each plate with the sweet potato and corn, and serve with the tortilla chips, if using.

PERUVIAN CEVICHE

Steps:

• For the salsa: Combine the tomatoes, celery, cucumber, onion and cilantro in a mixing bowl.
• Add the lime juice, ginger, garlic and salt and pepper to taste. Add the corn and aji amarillo paste. Mix well.
• For the ceviche: In a separate bowl, add the bay leaves, lime juice, some salt and pepper and 5 cups water. Add the shrimp and toss to coat. The citric acid in the lime juice will cook the shrimp in about 3 to 5 minutes. Once the shrimp turn opaque, take them out and place them on ice to stop the cooking process.
