Coconut Ginger Ceviche Recipes

COCONUT CEVICHE RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Working 1 at a time, set a coconut on its side on a cutting board. First, remove the white husk from one end of the coconut to expose the brown shell underneath. Holding the coconut in place with one hand on the rounded end, carefully use the back end, or heel, of the knife to puncture the exposed coconut shell. Do not use any force other than the weight of the knife. Do this a few times, working in a circle until you can wedge your knife into the coconut shell and pop off the top. Drain the coconut water into a bowl and reserve for another use.
• With the cut side of the coconut up, place the knife over the opening and cover the spine (dull side) of the knife with a folded kitchen towel. Using a meat mallet or other heavy kitchen utensil, like a rolling pin, whack the knife where the towel covers it. Repeat a few times until the coconut is cracked in half.
• With a large spoon, scoop out the coconut meat. If necessary, clean the coconut meat by trimming off any hard or woody pieces of the shell. With a sharp knife, cut the cleaned coconut meat into 1 x ½-inch (2 ½ cm x 1 ¼ cm) strips.
• In a medium bowl, toss together the coconut meat, mango, red onion, jalapeño, lime zest and juice, coconut milk, mint, and cilantro. Season with the salt, then stir again.
• Cover the bowl and let marinate in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour, up to 3 hours.
• Serve the ceviche chilled with tortilla chips or in a tostada shell.
• Enjoy!

CEVICHE WITH COCONUT AND GINGER

Steps:

• In a large bowl, toss the snapper with the lemon and lime juices and the salt and let marinate for 1 hour in the refrigerator.
• Meanwhile, to make the coconut-chile sauce, in a skillet, heat the oil over medium-high heat and sauté the onion just until translucent, 2 to 3 minutes. In the jar of a blender, add the sautéed onion, coconut milk, and chiles and puree until smooth; strain through a fine-mesh sieve into a bowl.
• Drain off the marinade from the fish. In a large bowl, toss the snapper with the basil.
• Drizzle half of the coconut-chile sauce over the fish and use the remaining sauce as a dip for the tacos. Serve immediately.
• To serve, place some iceberg slaw in each crispy shell, divide the filling equally between them, top with garnish, and arrange in a taco holder. Or, lean the filled shells in a row, propped upright, on a platter. Eat right away. To build your own, place some slaw, then filling, in a crispy shell, and eat right away.

Just before serving fold in your fresh herbs and adjust seasoning. Serve in a chilled cocktail glass or over a halved avocado. Disfrute

HONDURAN CEVICHE

Steps:

• Place the coconut in the palm of your hand. With the back of a cleaver or a heavy knife, whack the coconut along its middle, rotating it in your hand until it splits in two. (As it begins to crack, it will leak; work over a large bowl if you wish to save the liquid.) Rinse the halves and use a table knife to pry the coconut meat away from the outer shell. Using a vegetable peeler, make thin strips of coconut meat until you have 2 1/4 cups. Set the strips aside. (Save the remaining coconut meat for another use.)
• Place the coconut milk, lime juice, nuoc mam, ginger, jalapeno and sugar in the container of a blender and blend until very smooth. When ready to serve, toss the tuna in the sauce. Toss again with the coconut strips, cilantro, scallions and chives. Place in small serving bowls and garnish with watercress and red bell pepper.
