Hamachi-Avocado Ceviche


Hamachi-Avocado Ceviche

Ingredients

2 Meyer lemons, unpeeled and rough chopped
1 orange, unpeeled and rough chopped
2 Tbsp. lemon juice
� cup light corn syrup
1 tsp. Champagne vinegar
1 Tbsp. honey
1 cup vegetable oil
1 lb. hamachi*
1 avocado
2 Tbsp. fresh or frozen peas
2 Tbsp. extra virgin olive oil
Sea salt
Sprouts

Preparation

• Place the first six ingredients in a container. Using an immersion blender or a whisk, slowly add the vegetable oil to emulsify. Do not add the oil too fast or the vinaigrette will break. Strain though a fine mesh strainer.

• Thinly slice the hamachi – the thinner the better. Place five slices on each plate.

• Slice the avocado and distribute the slices in between the pieces of hamachi on each plate.

• Drizzle about ½ ounce of the lemon vinaigrette in a zigzag pattern across the hamachi and avocado.

• Drizzle 1 tablespoon of the olive oil over each plate, then top evenly with 10 to 12 peas.

• Season each plate with just a small pinch of salt.

• Finish each plate with a sprinkling of sprouts. Be sure not to use so many sprouts that it completely covers the hamachi.

*Hamachi may be special ordered through Bob's Seafood, found frozen at Whole Foods Market or purchased through Oceano Bistro.
