This vegan take on a ceviche from Adriana Cavita uses a combination of persimmons, radish and avocado in the place of raw fish, and is seasoned with a spicy habanero sauce.
Cook the habanero and onion over coals or in a hot pan over a high heat until charred all over. Alternatively, cook them under a hot grill, turning regularly, for about 20 minutes or until charred all over
To make the sauce, blend the charred habanero chilli and onion in a food processor with the lime juice, olive oil and salt. Add a bit of water to loosen the sauce if needed. It should be a runny sauce, rather than super thick
For the guacamole, blend all the ingredients together either in a blender or with a stick blender. Taste and add more salt if needed. This will keep for three days
Mix the persimmon, mooli, pomegranate seeds and avocado together in a bowl and season with a pinch of sea salt. Add the olive oil and ceviche negro base and gently stir together
Divide the ceviche between tostadas or tortilla chips
Finish with the guacamole, daikon and lemon balm leaves or micro mizuna and drops of olive oil
