Steps

  1. 1
    Use only fish you would eat raw. Cut it into 2 cm cubes and keep it very cold until the moment you dress it.
  2. 2
    Slice the onion paper-thin and soak it in iced water 10 minutes, then drain.
  3. 3
    Squeeze the limes by hand and only lightly — crushing the peel in a press releases bitter oils that ruin the leche de tigre.
  4. 4
    Blend a quarter of the fish with some lime juice, the garlic, celery and chilli, then strain: this is your leche de tigre.
  5. 5
    Season the fish cubes with salt and let them stand 2 minutes.
  6. 6
    Pour over the leche de tigre and remaining lime juice and leave just 3-5 minutes. The fish should be opaque at the edge and still translucent in the middle; longer and it goes chalky.
  7. 7
    Fold through the onion and coriander and serve at once with sweet potato and corn.
