Ceviche is a popular dish in Peru and other Latin American countries, where it is often served as a refreshing appetizer or light meal. This version of ceviche features talapia fish, onion, avocado, tomato, and cilantro, all marinated in a tangy mixture of lemon juice and olive oil. The dish is typically served with corn on the cob, sweet potato, or toasted corn kernels, and may be accompanied by a cold beer or glass of white wine. Ceviche can be enjoyed as a healthy and flavorful alternative to traditional seafood dishes.
