Mango & Cucumber Salsa
Description
This salsa features peeled, seeded, and diced cucumber mixed with ripe mango diced into similar-sized pieces for uniform texture. Finely chopped red onion adds sharpness, while minced jalapeño lends moderate heat and the optional habanero adds more intensity. Freshly squeezed lime and orange juices provide acidity and citrus aroma that brighten the fruit and vegetable flavors. Kosher salt is added to enhance all components.
The salsa can be refrigerated to meld flavors before serving, making it ideal as a fresh topping for grilled meats, fish, tacos, or as a vibrant side dip. Its balance of sweetness from mango and cool crunch from cucumber with a touch of pepper heat creates a lively contrast suitable for warm-weather meals or whenever a light palate cleanser is desired.
