ART ON A PLATE

Its somethings that people enjoy seeing everytime when
 going out , the price you pay to enjoy what one has created for
 you to love and enjoy. the simple things are the ones poeple enjoy the most.



It's a piece of art on a plate, I do it for the love, the expression on your face when you see it, 

how mouthwatering you get before its put down before you. 
The ball of different textures, tastes and mix of balanced ingredients all coming together to make one flavor in your mouth is what makes me smile.
 That's the only payment that really makes my day worth it and leaves a great smile on my face. It's a great pleasure too cook for you and to those I've cooked for theirs many more dishes to come, thanks to the passion boiling in me. 



I wouldn't do this if I didn't love it or if I did it only for the money,
 I take time in producing the best plate ever every time. From where 
I started to where I'm going a lot of people made fun of me, and they 
smile with me now. I'm not saying I'm the best but I take pride in what 
I do with my clean hands.

This is my life cooking and it has made me reach goals and get let go of, 
people say I hardly have time always tired but it's the life I choose to leave
 and make the best out of it. 
I hardly do anything great that puts a smile on my face until
 in the kitchen , being creative and competitive is what motivates me in a lot of ways. 


Moving from home to the USA and the UAE has opened my 
eyes in terms of different styles of cooking, yes we see it 
on tv , but doing it practically is a different thing to me. 

On this post I have a few dishes I'm working with and plate 
almost everyday, they are not my receipts and I follow what they 
say and at some point I'll twist them to my liking to suit the taste of
 the people who will enjoy them.

 On this post I'll share a recipe and you can twist it to your liking , 
because you can make it spicy or just with lime and salt as a 
dip for friends when having a dinner or relaxing.

Ceviche

Classic Ceviche: Fish, Aji limo, Lime, Choclo (Peruvian Corn), Sweet potatoes, Red onions. Personally, I never knew it and besides me being a chef and all I'm still learning a lot of things and the food world. About a year and a half while working in the USA I met this lady Andrea from Peru in South America. She introduced me to ceviche and all the ingredients they add to it, but I didn't get the whole cooking thing.  What I knew was that on the classic ceviche they use white fish most of the times and one spicy chilli which they blend into the mixture called "leche de tigre" or "tigger's milk" and mix it with the fish. So I asked if we going to fry it and she said "no we cook the fish with lime for a few minutes then it's done".  "Aji Amarillo" and "Aji Limo" are the most popular chillis for ceviche Peruvian Lime, really acid. Where she comes from, Peru it's a normal thing to have it and there ...
