1/3 cup chopped fresh cilantro, plus several sprigs for garnish
1/3 cup ketchup
1 to 2 Tbs vinegary Mexican bottled hot sauce (Tapatio or other)

Directions:
Directions:
Peel and devein shrimp. I buy them already deveined. Heat butter in a saute pan. Saute shrimp until just pink. Remove from heat and let cool. Once they are cool, chop the shrimp into quarter inch pieces. In a medium bowl combine onion along with the cilantro, ketchup, hot sauce, optional olive oil, cucumber and avocado. Carefully mix in chopped shrimp. Taste and season with salt, usually about 1/2 teaspoon. Cover and refrigerate if not serving immediately. Spoon the ceviche into sundae glasses, martini glasses, or small bowls. Garnish with sprigs of cilantro and slices of lime. Serve with tostadas, tortilla chips or saltines to enjoy alongside.
