Mango Salsa



Mango is still the star!!!   Savoury this time though.  This fresh salsa with a twist came about from a list of ingredients bought home with my daughter Em from a meal shared with Loretta, Jordan and family.  Thank you!

Ingredients:
½ red onion (finely diced)
1 medium cucumber (diced)
1 small red capsicum (diced)
1 large mango *
Fresh juice from 1 lime

Method:
In a medium sized mixing bowl, place your very finely diced red onion.  Add to this your diced cucumber and diced capsicum and mix through.  Lastly dice your mango and gently mix through until well combined.  Gentle is the key here, otherwise your mango will just turn to mush. A little tip from Loretta's experience here.
* Choose a firm, but ripe, sweet smelling mango to avoid the mushiness.
 
I have served this salsa with prawns as pictured here, or with smoked salmon.   
Great as a different dip with corn chips too.  Perhaps dice the cucumber and capsicum a little finer if you know you're going to serve as a dip.
