directions

Step 1

Spray a little water on tortillas, wrap in a white linen serviette and microwave for 2 x 1 minute intervals to loosen and make more pliable to shape into a cone.

Step 2

Place in the black cone moulds and bake in a 180ºC oven for 4 minutes.

Step 3

Fry at 350ºC for 1 minute or until crunchy but not overly browned.

Step 4

Combine all ingredients in a bowl and mash with a fork. Reserve, covered and refrigerated.

Step 5

In a bowl, combine the lime juice and fish. Sprinkle a pinch of salt and allow trout to “cook” in the citrus juice for 10 minutes.

Step 6

Strain off excess lime juice.

Step 7

Mix in jalapeño, green apple, cilantro, and olive oil. Mix well but try not to mash ingredients. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

Step 8

Season with salt.

Step 9

Place the ceviche in the centre of a small bowl, top with crispy tortillas, tobiko and tequila. Serve immediately.
