As a Peruvian seeing lemon as an ingredient for ceviche instead of the traditional line hurts my soul
They dont have or use lemons in ceviche. The juice is from limes and the pepper is habanero. Blended with garlic this is Leche de Tigre.
I object to the use of lemons in this "Ceviche" - keep the recipe if you desire but remove Peruvian from the title. LIMES please------ LIMES LIMES for authentic Peruvian Ceviche
Many thanks to Evan for the directions on how to make Leche de Tigre! I was shocked to find that there were no recipes in the New York Times database or on Google. I blended one habanero cored and seeded with a few cloves of garlic and the juice of 11 limes. It turned out wonderfully. I have another habanero sliced in reserve for garnish or as needed for heat. However my one little habanero seems to be doing the trick for now.
True limes are essential. Also thinly sliced red onions should marinade with the rich. Rocoto bought at Latin markets gives it an authentic taste 2 teaspoons max.

Great recipe. I substituted the red chilli pepper with serrano and it turned out perfect... for me, not so much for some family members so I'll probably have to seed it next time. Also I used only half of an onion because 2 seemed a bit too much.
