Tiradito is a traditional Peruvian dish that features raw fish, typically sole or tuna, marinated in a zesty sauce made from lime juice, aji amarillo (a type of chili pepper), and garlic. Unlike its cousin, ceviche, which is cut into cubes, tiradito is sliced into thin, sashimi-like pieces, allowing the marinade to penetrate the fish more effectively.
This dish is often served with garnishes such as sweet potatoes and corn, adding a touch of sweetness and texture. Tiradito is popular in coastal regions of Peru and is celebrated for its fresh flavors and vibrant presentation, making it a favorite among seafood lovers.
