CEVICHE LETTUCE WRAPS
An elegant presentation that is suitable for guests. In this "ceviche" you can use precooked salad shrimp, or the more traditional raw shrimp, and serve in a romaine lettuce wrap. Of course you can use any lettuce you prefer, such as green leaf lettuce, red leaf lettuce, or Boston leaf lettuce. My husband prefers his ceviche served on a bed of iceberg lettuce rather than a wrap. You could also get really fancy if you are ambitious. Cut "strings" out of green onions and tie bundles. Thinly sliced green onions, soaked in ice water get curly. Very pretty. Created for the Craze-E Salad Contest. REVISED after reviews.:wink:

The temperatures keep creeping up as winter gives way to spring and eventually summer. With these sun-filled days, lighter fare for dinner is more in order. Ceviche, fresh raw fish cured in citrus juices, meets the requirements for a great summer dish: quick, fresh, cooling. This particular recipe features the Going to the Sun IPA from the Great Northern Brewing of Whitefish, Montana.

Steps:
- In a large glass bowl, combine the fish, lime juice and onion. The juice should completely cover the fish; if not, add a little more. Cover with cling film and place in the fridge for 1 hr 30 mins.
- Remove the fish and onion from the lime juice (discard the juice) and place in a bowl. Add the olives, chilies, tomatoes, coriander and olive oil, stir gently, then season with a good pinch of salt and sugar. This can be made a couple of hours in advance and stored in the fridge. Serve with tortilla chips to scoop up the ceviche and enjoy with a glass of cold beer.

Tips:
- Use fresh, high-quality ingredients. This is especially important for the fish, which should be sushi-grade. Aim to get the freshest fish possible, from a reputable source.
- Cut the fish into small pieces. This will help the ceviche to cook evenly and quickly.
- Marinate the fish in a citrus-based marinade. This will help to "cook" the fish and give it a bright, tangy flavor. Be sure to use a good quality olive oil in the marinade.
- Add your favorite vegetables and herbs to the ceviche. Some popular additions include red onion, cilantro, avocado, and jalapeños. Get creative and experiment with different flavors.
- Serve the ceviche immediately. Ceviche is best when served fresh. If you need to make it ahead of time, store it in the refrigerator for up to 2 hours.
