Mango Salsa
Description
Mango Salsa is made by carefully dicing ripe mangoes, removing pits, and combining the fruit with seeded Roma tomatoes, thinly sliced red onion, diced jalapeño, and roughly chopped fresh cilantro. Lime juice and salt add brightness and seasoning. The inclusion of jalapeño seeds can be adjusted according to spice preference, creating options from mild to medium heat. This salsa offers a balance of sweet, tangy, and slightly spicy flavors, with crunchy and juicy textures from the fresh ingredients.
The salsa pairs well as a complement to grilled chicken or fish, providing a fresh and zesty contrast to richer or smoky flavors. It can also be enjoyed with chips or as a topping for tacos.
Adjust the seasoning with additional salt or jalapeño seeds after tasting to match your preferred spice and saltiness levels.
Ingredients
- 2 large Mango diced
- 2 Roma tomato seeded and diced
- 1 red onion thinly sliced
- 1 jalapeño diced thinly
- ½ cup cilantro roughly chopped, fresh
- lime juice juice of 2 limes
- ½ teaspoon salt
Instructions
- Cut each mango in half lengthwise. Remove the pit and make slices lengthwise and horizontal across the half without cutting through the peel. Turn the flesh inside out and scoop the cubes off carefully with a spoon or a paring knife.
- In a large bowl, combine the diced mango, diced tomato, sliced red onion, diced jalapeño and chopped cilantro.
- Add in the lime juice and salt and stir to combine.
Notes
- Add additional salt to taste after combining ingredients if a saltier flavor is desired.
- For a spicier salsa, include the jalapeño seeds and white membrane when dicing the pepper.
- This salsa works well as a topping for grilled chicken or fish, adding fresh flavor and texture.
