Avocado Salsa
Description
In this simple preparation, diced avocado and mango are gently combined with chopped cilantro and red onion. Lime juice adds brightness and acidity, while thinly sliced jalapeño peppers bring a touch of heat. Ground cumin and sea salt season the salsa, rounding out the flavors.
The result is a colorful, chunky salsa with creamy avocado and sweet mango balancing the sharper onion and pepper notes. It is meant to be served fresh, using tortilla chips for dipping or as a topping for grilled meats or tacos.
The gentle stirring preserves the avocado's texture without mashing it, maintaining individual chunks for a pleasing mouthfeel. This salsa works well as a light appetizer or a complement to other dishes.
