Ingredients

• 300 grams fresh salmon fillet
• 120 milliliters lime juice
• 60 milliliters lemon juice
• 0.5 red onion
• 1 jalapeño pepper
• 30 grams fresh cilantro
• 1 avocado
• 150 grams corn kernels
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper

Directions

Step 1

1. Begin by carefully slicing the fresh salmon fillet into small, bite-sized cubes. Make sure to use a sharp knife and a clean cutting board to maintain the quality of the fish.

Step 2

2. Place the cubed salmon into a large glass or ceramic bowl. Avoid using metal bowls as they can react with the acidity of the lime and lemon juice.

Step 3

3. Pour the lime juice and lemon juice over the salmon cubes, ensuring they are completely submerged. The citrus juice will 'cook' the salmon, so be sure it covers all the pieces.

Step 4

4. Peel and finely slice the red onion into thin strips. Add these to the bowl with the marinating salmon.

Step 5

5. Dice the jalapeño pepper finely, removing the seeds if you prefer a milder taste. Add the diced jalapeño to the bowl.

Step 6

6. Roughly chop the fresh cilantro leaves and add them to the salmon mixture.

Step 7

7. Add the corn kernels to the mix. Fresh or thawed frozen corn can be used.

Step 8

8. Season the mixture with salt and black pepper, then gently stir all the ingredients to distribute the flavors evenly.

Step 9

9. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or a lid and place it in the refrigerator to marinate for at least 15 minutes. This allows the salmon to absorb the citrus juices and flavors.

Step 10

10. Just before serving, dice the avocado and gently fold it into the ceviche using a spatula, being careful not to mash it.

Step 11

11. Serve the salmon ceviche chilled, optionally garnished with additional cilantro leaves, accompanied by tortilla chips or on a bed of lettuce for an extra touch.
