Recipe - how do you make it

Ceviche is a delicious fresh dish from Latin America. Simply put, it is pieces of fish in an acidic marinade. Raw fish is usually used, but canned tuna can also be used to create tasty ceviche. You can use all kinds of chilies for the marinade, but make sure it is always very spicy. In Peru, this marinade is called tiger’s milk. Sometimes the men drink it with a shot of pisco (Peruvian liquor). Then they call it panther milk. It is said to be good for potency.
