Ingredients
- 1 mango diced
- 1 serrano pepper (or jalepeno) finely minced
- 1 medium avocado diced
- 1 bunch cilantro chopped
- 1 red onion diced
- 1-2 limes juice of
- pinch salt to taste
Instructions
- In a large bowl, combine the diced mango, minced pepper, diced avocado, chopped cilantro, diced red onion, lime juice and pinch of salt until evenly mixed.
- Store in the refrigerator for up to two days, covered.
- Serve as desired, chilled.
Notes
- fresh mango is preferred over frozen for this salsa
- if the lime isn't yielding much juice, use two
- limes that are dry can be microwaved for 30 seconds and then rolled between the palm of hand and counter top; this releases the juices
- use fresh cilantro, not dried
- serve as you would chips and salsa, in a salsa or taco bar, or as a topping for street tacos, grilled chicken or fish!
- store in an airtight container for up to two days
- the acidity of the lime can help to preserve the avocado (keep it from going brown) so toss the salsa well, and use plenty of lime juice if storing in the fridge for later use
- to make ahead of time, wait to add the avocado until ready to serve
