By atlcook

Ingredients

• 1 conch meat, 2 pounds
• Juice of 15 limes
• 2 ounces lime juice
• 1 large tomato, chopped
• 1 green pepper, chopped
• 1 large onion, chopped
• 1/2 cucumber, peeled and chopped
• 1 tablespoon Worcestershire Sauce
• Hot Pepper Sauce
• Cayenne pepper
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/4 teaspoon pepper

Preparation

Step 1

Cut the conch meat into bite sized pieces, about 1/2-inch. Discard any orange or grey sections that may still be on the meat, as this is very tough and hard to chew.

Wash Conch thoroughly in bowl. Dice Conch finely and put into bowl and squeeze limes and defrost the cleaned conch meat in the lime juice. Allow to marinate in refrigerator for several hours - even over night.

Combine all of the vegetables in a large bowl. Add them to the lime juice.

Taste and add salt and pepper and cayenne pepper, if needed. 1-2 hot peppers is usually enough
