Line a plate with lettuce leaves. Place the sweet potato, choclo kernels and cancha on one side. Next to it place the cebiche, along with the liquid in the bowl (''leche de tigre''). Top with drained strips of red onion and fried octopus and enjoy. Cook’s NoteCebiche is not a dish eaten very cold; it tastes better when the ingredients are room temperature, so don't worry about chilling the ingredients or the plates it's served on. Choclo corn is a Peruvian variety with very large kernels, often sold boiled and frozen. Cancha corn is a kind of toasted corn similar to corn nuts. You can buy both types of corn in some larger supermarkets and in grocery stores catering to Peruvian or South American customers, or find them online.Subscribe to our channel to fill up on the latest must-eat recipes, brilliant kitchen hacks and content from your favorite Food Network shows.▶ FOOD NETWORK KITCHEN APP: http://foodtv.com/FNKApp▶ WEBSITE: https://www.foodnetwork.com▶ FULL EPISODES: https://watch.foodnetwork.com▶ FACEBOOK: https://www.facebook.com/FoodNetwork▶ INSTAGRAM: https://www.instagram.com/FoodNetwork▶ TWITTER: https://twitter.com/FoodNetwork#TasteOf #Peru #CebicheCarretillero #JulioCesarFlorez #FoodNetwork Get a Taste of Peru: Cebiche Carretillero with Chef Julio-Cesar Florez | Food Networkhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yDc31iwqxdg&feature=youtu.be
