Start by cutting the cooked shrimp into larger pieces, not too small, or you can leave them whole if preferred.

Peel and dice the cucumber.

Add the diced cucumber to the mixing bowl and mix well with the shrimp.

Cut the black olives and add them to the mixture, noting that they are optional.

Chop the celery and add it to the bowl, also optional for flavor.

Squeeze in the juice of 4 limes, noting that if using raw shrimp, you would need to cover it to let it marinate, but since the shrimp is cooked, it's just for flavor.

Add salt and pepper to taste.

Add finely chopped red onion to the mixture.

Pour in Worcestershire sauce as desired.

Prepare the avocado by slicing it, and optionally mash it with salt and pepper for a guacamole-like texture.

Cut the mango into small cubes if using, and add it to the ceviche mixture.

Prepare tostadas for serving, ensuring to drain excess liquid from the ceviche to prevent sogginess.

Spoon the ceviche onto the tostadas and top with slices of avocado.
