Texas Fish Taste Reel Good

Today I made an adventurous Peruvian dish called ceviche. The first time I made it was in Maine and with my dad when I was six. Ceviche is made with fish, lemon juice, lime juice, and a lot of other stuff.

But before I made the dish I had to catch the fish. I am staying in Texas with my Aunt Kathy, my Uncle Robert and my cousin Arielle. Robert set up a fishing day for my mom and I on lake Texoma. We went with a really nice guide named Mike. We caught 19 striped bass and the limit of fish is 20, 10 per person. The fish were a little big and hard to reel in but I held up.

Now that we had the fish it was time to make the ceviche. Here is the recipe:

One pound of fresh white fish

One half cup of fresh lemon and lime juice mixed

One half a red onion chopped

One cup of chopped tomato

2 teaspoons of salt

A dash of hot sauce.

Mix it all up in a bowl and put it in the fridge for at least an hour. The lemon and lime juice "cooks" the fish.

It was delicious! Arielle had some friends over and they all tried it and also liked it. A three year old girl, Zoe, loved it too. The dish was a success.
