Cev is a traditional dish from the cuisine of Northern Peru, particularly in the region of Lambayeque, where it is called ceviche. It consists of raw fish and seafood that are marinated in a citrus-based marinade of lime or lemon juice. The dish is often accompanied by onions, hot peppers, and cilantro. The term 'cev' is sometimes used to refer to this type of dish or a similar preparation elsewhere.
