Step-by-Step Instructions

1

Dice the mango

Peel 2 ripe mangoes and cut the flesh into small, even 1 cm dice to get about 2 cups. Sweet, low-fibre Sindhri or Chaunsa hold their shape and add juicy sweetness. Add to a medium bowl.

2

Prep the aromatics

Finely dice 1/2 small red onion, mince 1 seeded jalapeno (leave the seeds in for more heat) and chop 1/3 cup cilantro. Add all to the bowl with the mango.

3

Dress and toss

Squeeze in the juice of 1 lime and add 1/4 teaspoon salt. Toss gently to combine without mashing the mango. Taste and adjust salt and lime.

4

Rest and serve

Let the salsa sit 10 minutes so the flavours meld, then serve right away with tortilla chips, over fish tacos, or alongside grilled chicken or shrimp. Best enjoyed fresh the same day.
