Directions
Makes about 8 servings
1 large mango, or 5 ounces frozen mango, thawed and diced (about 1 cup)
1 large tomato, seeded (optional) and diced
1/4 cup minced fresh cilantro
3 tablespoons freshly squeezed lime juice
1 tablespoon minced jalapeñ o chile, or 1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
1/4 teaspoon salt
To prepare the fresh mango, peel it and use a sharp paring knife to cut the flesh away from the pit. Cut the flesh into 1/4-inch cubes. Place the diced mango in a medium mixing bowl.
Add all of the remaining ingredients and stir to combine. Let stand 15 minutes to allow the flavors to marry. Stored in a covered container in the refrigerator. Leftover salsa will keep for up to one day.
Variation: For Peach Salsa, substitute one large peach for the mango.
