Fish salpicon
Fish second courses
There is a dish at Fonda, a fantastic Mexican restaurant that opened up near our apartment last year, that I order every time we go there. It's called fish salpicon. It’s basically a cooked ceviche, served with homemade corn tortillas (I like to add a dollop of their homemade guacamole and make my own taco). I decided to try to recreate it. I used tilapia, which I thought would flake nicely, and I lightly coated the fish in Wondra before sautéing it, which gave it a nice crisp crust. Mine didn’t turn out exactly like Fonda’s, but I liked it anyway: it’s an easy dish to whip up as an hors d’oeuvre (serve it with chips instead of tortillas), or as a light supper for one.
