Ecuadorian Ceviche --- Carne Colorada
Bold flavours from the Pacific coast and the Andean highlands of Ecuador….
Ecuador has an amazing variety of ingredients, from tropical fruits to root vegetables, reflecting the extraordinary diversity of its geography and climate. We start this meal with an Ecuadorian coastal favourite, refreshing citrus-marinated prawn ceviche complemented with a deliciously fruity passion fruit chilli sauce called aji de maracuya.
For the main we head to the highlands with satisfying annatto marinated pork served with a whole variety of traditional accompaniments: potato cakes called llapingachos served with a peanut sauce, a citrusy salad called curtido and two ever-present ingredients in Ecuador, avocado and corn.

This was delicious. :) The prawn ceviche was so good we ate it before taking a photo. The main was great and the peanut sauce and passionfruit chilli sauce the best I have tasted.
Lovely 3 courses, great to try some different dishes and flavours! Ceviche starter and pork main full of flavour balanced well with accompaniments and followed by an interesting dessert offering some sweetness!
We're happy to hear you enjoyed this- it's a favourite of ours at Spicery HQ too!
Really enjoyed this. Prawn ceviche very tasty, citrus with the prawns complimented by the passion fruit chilli sauce. Then the main, everything made for each other - the llapingachos, so simple, so good. Very easy to put together, more of these please.
Hooray thank you for your great review! We love the amazing variety of ingredients found in Ecuador and how well they complement each other, we'll pass your feedback on to the recipe development team and you can use the 'Make this Again' section of the recipe card to recreate the spice blends using spices that you're likely to have at home, happy spicing!
The whole meal was wonderful. Citrus ceviche, pork with a potato cake and spicy figs to follow
Looks great, Ruth! Happy spicing!
The Ceviche starter is fabulous! The passionfruit chilli sauce also goes well on the corn and avocado. The pork came out a touch dry - but was saved by the peanut sauce.
WOW everything looks amazing and so vibrant- perfect for adding some sunshine to the kitchen!
Usually a big Indian lover. But loved the flavour and how unique this date night is. Absolutely loved it.
This looks great, Nigel - a lovely mix of vibrant colours! We're so pleased to hear how much you enjoyed your taste of Ecuador!
