Panama

We had prepared a Ceviche des Garbanzos (chickpea ceviche) which was to be our dinner on Wednesday night. In Panama, they eat ceviche of fish, chicken, or chickpeas with saltine crackers, cold as an hors d'oeuvre. A ceviche is like a salad, but in the case of fish it uses raw fish and lots of lemon juice which "cooks" it. ANYWAY...we got invited to a barbie so took our ceviche and had it as a salad! It was very tasty. It had chickpeas, raw onions, cooked chorizo, some herbs and spices...it was too long ago-I've forgotten the rest! We are really enjoying trying some interesting vegetarian meals at the moment (well I am anyway!)
