Instructions

  1. 1

    Place the lime juice, fish stock, ginger, garlic, celery, and two sprigs of cilantro in a blender.

  2. 2

    Pulse the blender 5-6 times just to infuse the flavors without fully liquefying the solids, then strain through a fine-mesh sieve into a bowl.

  3. 3

    Whisk the Aji Amarillo paste and salt into the strained liquid until fully incorporated and chilled.

  4. 4

    In a separate chilled bowl, toss the cubed fish with a pinch of salt and the minced habanero.

  5. 5

    Pour the prepared Leche de Tigre liquid over the fish and let it marinate for exactly 2 to 3 minutes.

  6. 6

    Gently fold in the sliced red onions and the remaining chopped cilantro.

  7. 7

    Distribute the fish cubes evenly among 8-10 small shooter glasses.

  8. 8

    Fill the remainder of each glass with the marinade liquid and top with a few kernels of toasted corn.
