Ceviche with coconut milk, ginger and kaffir lime

This is a smooth version of the famous Peruvian raw fish salad. The sharp edges of the chili, lime and ginger are softened by a few spoons of coconut milk. As always with ceviche, the quality of the fish is crucial. You can use salmon, tuna or any high quality white flesh fish.

2 tablespoons finely sliced red fresh chili

2 teaspoons fresh ginger matchsticks

3 tablespoons chopped scallions

1/2 teaspoon salt

Cut the fish into small cubes or thin very slices.

In a bowl, mix all ingredients except the fish.

Add the fish, mix well and make sure all the pieces are covered with the sauce.

If you want to prepare the dish and serve it later, add the scallions just before serving, to keep them fresh and crispy.
