Signature Dishes: Ceviche, Top Chef Cooking Studio (Video)

If you’re looking for the perfect summer dish that doesn’t require getting hot and bothered in the kitchen then ceviche should be at the top of the list.

Once one of South America’s best kept secrets, ceviche is now gaining popularity at rapid speed due to its light, fresh and zingy flavour.

We went along to the Top Chef Cooking Studio where the super talented Cristina Mennah shared her secret ceviche recipe.

From our video, you would never believe Cristina was apprehensive at being filmed. She was so nervous initially but as soon as she stepped foot into her kitchen we knew she was in her element. It’s quite fascinating to see a chef at work and it’s clear that the kitchen is definitely where Cristina is at home.

Have a go yourself with Cristina’s recipe, we guarantee it will be a favourite at your next dinner party.

Writing is my passion and is now luckily, my job. I'm currently the Content Editor here at the ENTERTAINER, so I spend most of my days writing about fun things to see, do and explore. When I'm not doing that I'm either watching Game of Thrones, listening to Old Skool RnB or eating (eating can be a hobby, right?).
