The method

Step by step

  1. 1

    In a medium glass bowl, combine the cremini mushrooms, lime juice, red onion, and jalapeño.

    About 2 min

    Cook’s note: Ensure mushrooms are sliced thinly to absorb the marinade effectively.

  2. 2

    Gently stir the mixture to ensure all ingredients are well coated in the lime juice.

    About 1 min

  3. 3

    Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, allowing the mushrooms to marinate and soften.

    Cook’s note: Marinating longer, up to 2 hours, will result in softer mushrooms and deeper flavor.

  4. 4

    After marinating, drain any excess liquid from the mushroom mixture.

    About 1 min

    Cook’s note: This prevents the ceviche from becoming too watery.

  5. 5

    Add the diced tomato, chopped cilantro, diced avocado, salt, and black pepper to the bowl.

    About 2 min

  6. 6

    Gently fold all the ingredients together until evenly combined.

    About 1 min

    Cook’s note: Be careful not to mash the avocado.

  7. 7

    Taste and adjust seasoning as needed.

    Cook’s note: You might want more lime juice or a pinch more salt.

  8. 8

    Serve immediately with tortilla chips.

    Cook’s note: For best flavor and texture, consume within a few hours of preparation.
