Tiradito Tri Color

Tiradito Tricolor is a visually stunning and flavorful Peruvian dish, similar to ceviche, but with a unique twist. It consists of thinly sliced raw fish, raw tuna, and cooked shrimp, arranged beautifully on a plate and topped with three different sauces: passion fruit sauce, olive aioli, and rocoto sauce. Each sauce adds its own distinct flavor, making the dish a celebration of taste and color. Passion Fruit Sauce: This sauce is made from the pulp of passion fruit (maracuyá), giving it a sweet and tangy flavor. The vibrant yellow color of the sauce contrasts beautifully with the fresh fish and provides a refreshing, tropical note. Olive Aioli: This sauce is a creamy blend of olive oil, garlic, and mayonnaise but with the deep flavor of black Peruvian olives. The purple color of the olives gives the sauce a striking hue, and its rich, slightly salty flavor complements the raw fish perfectly. Rocoto Sauce: Made from rocoto peppers, which are spicy and fruity, this sauce brings heat and a fiery red color to the plate. The sauce is often balanced with lime juice and garlic to enhance the pepper’s natural sweetness, adding a spicy kick without overpowering the dish. In Tiradito Tricolor, the three sauces not only provide a vibrant color palette but also offer a range of flavors, from sweet and tangy to creamy and spicy. The delicate, fresh fish absorbs the different sauces, making each bite a unique combination of Peruvian flavors. This dish is typically garnished with fried sweet potato.
