mango salsa

This is a beautiful colorful salsa that goes well with meat, poultry and seafood dishes.

Ingredients:

1 medium red onion

2 tsp salt

2 firm mangoes

1 orange bell pepper

4 red jalapeños

2 tbs finely chopped cilantro

Juice of 1 lime

Juice of 1 orange

1 tsp cumin

Preparation:

  1. Dice onion very finely and sprinkle with 2 tablespoons of salt, let rest for about 10 minutes
  2. Peel mango and dice into small pieces
  3. Dice bell pepper very finely
  4. Dice jalapeños very finely, I removed the seeds and membranes to make the salsa mild since the kids love it, but if you would like it spicier add them to the salsa, or you can also use a spicier hot pepper such as serranos or habaneros.
  5. Mix the lime, orange juice, cilantro and cumin together
  6. Rinse the onions with warm water
  7. Mix all the ingredients together and serve.

    A tip someone gave me once was to add a splash or two of triple sec into my mango salsa… kicks it up a bit for a twist!

    Great idea, I love anything that kicks it up!
