Ingredients

Fresh Mango Salsa Ingredients

  • 3 ripe mangos, diced
  • 1 medium red bell pepper, chopped
  • ½ cup chopped red onion
  • ¼ cup packed fresh cilantro leaves, chopped
  • 1 jalapeño, seeded and minced
  • 1 large lime, juiced (about ¼ cup lime juice)
  • to ¼ teaspoon salt, to taste

Instructions

  1. Combine Ingredients: In a serving bowl, add the diced mango, chopped red bell pepper, chopped red onion, chopped cilantro leaves, and minced jalapeño. Pour the freshly squeezed lime juice over the mixture to infuse brightness and acidity.
  2. Mix and Season: Using a large spoon, stir all the ingredients together thoroughly to blend the flavors. Add salt incrementally to suit your taste, stirring again to ensure even seasoning.
  3. Rest for Flavor: Let the salsa rest for at least 10 minutes or longer, allowing the ingredients to meld and develop a harmonious, vibrant taste before serving.

Notes

  • For a spicier salsa, leave some seeds in the jalapeño or add a second one.
  • Use freshly squeezed lime juice for the best flavor impact.
  • This salsa can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 2 days but is freshest when served immediately.
  • Great served with tortilla chips, grilled fish, or as a topping for tacos.
  • To dice a mango, cut around the seed lengthwise, then score the flesh and scoop it out with a spoon.
