Preparation

  1. Boil about 3 quarts of water in a deep cooking pan. Once the water is boiling, reduce heat and put in the shrimp to cook for about 2-3 minutes until they look pink. Turn off the stove, drain the shrimp with a colander on the kitchen sink and set aside to cool off.
  2. Make the lemon marinade by mixing lemon juice with diced onions and garlic. Sprinkle it with salt & pepper to taste and set aside.
  3. Cut the shrimp in half and add to a deep large bowl. With this, mix marinade, tomatoes, cucumber, cilantro, and salt and pepper to taste. Mix well.
  4. Add Clamato juice and diced avocados. Mix well, then cover and refrigerate for ~1 hour.
  5. To serve, plate fresh tostada shells and top with marinated ceviche mix. Sprinkle with hot sauce of choice if desired.
