I really don’t know what’s the right spelling for this dish. There is one thing I know though; I like the simplicity of this dish.
Ingredients are above. I had some garlic, shallots, scallions, ginger lemon, and good tuna. The difficult part for me here was peeling the lemon since I didn’t have any zester at that time so I peeled it with a knife.
To be honest, I was sort of eating healthy before so there was a time that all I ate was sashimi.
I got bored so I made some seviche/ceviche. Everything was just cutting and squeezing the lemon juice.
Julienne, macedoine, and brunoise.
Leave it for 15 mins then it’s done! It’s that simple.
We actually have a Filipino version of seviche/ceviche. It is called kilawin. Usually, it is white fish soaked in vinegar for at least a whole day.
Thoughts:
I like the texture of the tuna. Flavor profile is like fusion I think. Ginger, scallions, and lemon juice perhaps? It lacked color for me. Maybe some bell pepper could have helped it.
