Fishy business

Ceviche...
Dude.... I was a bit nervous about trying this bc cooking fish in lime juice sounds like a magic trick, but I love cevicher and I think I executed okay for my first time. I will definitely try it again.

My journey began with eating a fantastic mango ceviche at bodega (aka the rest.)
Since then I've Been wanting to take on the challenge of making this risky dish. After doing a little research on a time limit of how long to leave the fish, what fish to use, how big to cut it. How much lime juice so on and so forth took me abt 2 days to get an idea of ingredients and things that Ivwanted to try. I chose a simple version of this fishy dish. Here are my chosen ingredients:
Red and green onions, minced
1large garlic clove, minced
Cilantro, chopped
Mango (mostly green)chopped
Red, green and yellow bell peppers chopped 3 slices each
1 cucumber, chopped
10 limes, squeezed
6 large pieces of tilapia cubed small
The night before I juiced my limes, that reamer thingy is a God send bc my hand would've been dead if I did it any other way. I was tired but wasn't hating myself after. Lol. The next day in the afternoon I ch then got everything else ready. I placed my tilapia in a glass case role dish bc I didn't want my fish swimming in it I wanted each piece even submerge d in the lime juice. Once I got the lime juice in I left it in the fridge for an hour and a half. I read online that you can leave it a minimum of 20 minutes. O felt that it wasn't enough. I took it out of the fridge and salted and peppered my "cooked" fish I dumped out the time juice in a separate bowl, I didn't want to throw it out just yet. I threw all,the remaining ingredients in,with a little more salt and pepper bc I was retarded and put it in before I took out the lime juice. I tasted it  with a tortilla chip after given it agood toss and decided the mango didn't give it a sweet taste att least I couldn't even tell so I sprinkled a half ts of sugar (weird but it worked) and 3tbs of the lime juice I reserved bc it was dry. Needed a little bit of juice to moisten it. It was great with the tortilla chips bit it was great with just plain white rice.  I definitely want to try a different take on cevixhe . I've heard of ppl using clamato (clam and tomato juice) maybe I'll attempt that  next time.

Thanks for taking a gander at my fishy adventure. Lol.
