When is cooked fish not cooked? When it is ceviche. This amazing dish was a complete hit when I served it to my seafood loving friends, high praise indeed, they are a tough bunch to please when it comes to seafood. I have to say it is delish done this way. Just subtly cooked, without cooking. The perfect texture, a hit of heat with the creaminess of the avocado mousse and of course the crunch of a Sourdough Discard Cracker or two. If you were out of discard, or don't sourdough, by all means use a thinly sliced piece of very dry toast to serve.
I served these as an appetiser, and I do think the dish is best suited as that because the flavours are pretty full on and the idea of an amuse bouche or appetiser is to get you salivating and raring to go for what is to follow. We ate some the next day, but you really do need to eat it as close to it's date of making as possible in my opinion. The heat of the chillies just gets too strong and overpowers the other flavours.
