Mango Salsa
There's something undeniably satisfying about the vibrant colors and flavors of fresh salsa, especially when it's made with juicy, ripe mangos. Today, we're diving into the delightful world of mango salsa, a perfect blend of sweet, tangy, and spicy notes that's sure to elevate any dish it accompanies.
Ingredients:
- 2/3 Ripe Mangos (diced)
- 1 Medium Red Bell Pepper (chopped)
- ½ cup Red Onion (chopped)
- ¼ cup Fresh Cilantro Leaves (packed, chopped- optional)
- 1 Jalapeno (seeded and minced)
- 1 Large Lime (juiced, about 1/4 cup lime juice)
- ¼ teaspoon Salt (to taste)
Directions:
Before we dive into the chopping and dicing, it's essential to gather all our ingredients and prep them accordingly. Start by peeling and dicing the ripe mangos into bite-sized chunks. Chop up the red bell pepper, red onion, and jalapeno, ensuring they're finely minced for a uniform texture. Finally, gather your fresh cilantro leaves and give them a rough chop, releasing their aromatic flavors.
Once all our ingredients are prepped and ready to go, it's time to bring them together in a harmonious medley of flavors. In a spacious serving bowl, combine the diced mango, chopped red bell pepper, red onion, minced jalapeno, and freshly chopped cilantro leaves.
No salsa is complete without a burst of citrusy brightness, and that's where our trusty lime comes in. Slice the lime in half and squeeze its juicy goodness over the assembled ingredients, ensuring every corner of the salsa receives a refreshing splash.
Sprinkle a pinch of salt over the mixture, tasting as you go until the flavors sing in perfect harmony. Remember, a little salt can go a long way in enhancing the natural sweetness of the mango and balancing out the heat from the jalapeno.
We're ready to gently stir the ingredients together, allowing the flavors to intermingle and meld into salsa bliss.
And there you have it, a tantalizingly tangy Fresh Mango Salsa that's as easy to make as it is delicious to devour.
