Step 1
Toss fish cubes with lime juice, red onion, jalapeño, and a pinch of salt in a bowl. Let sit at room temperature for 8–10 minutes until the fish turns opaque.
Step 2
While ceviche cures, toss sweet potato with oil and salt. Spread on a sheet pan and roast at 425°F for 12 minutes until edges brown.
Step 3
Pat squid rings dry. Toss with flour, salt, and pepper until lightly coated on both sides.
Step 4
Heat 1/4 inch oil in a skillet over medium-high until it shimmers, about 90 seconds. Working in batches, fry squid rings 60–90 seconds per side until light golden and crispy. Transfer to paper towels.
Step 5
In the same skillet (oil drained), toast choclo over medium-high heat for 3–4 minutes, stirring once, until charred and fragrant.
Step 6
Divide ceviche between two bowls. Top with roasted sweet potato, charred choclo, and crispy calamari. Serve immediately with extra lime wedges.
