Ingredients

  • 1 ½ cup (300 g) mango diced
  • 1 medium-large (150 g) red bell pepper finely diced
  • cup (55 g) cherry tomatoes halved
  • ½ small-medium (60 g) red onion finely diced
  • 1 (35 g) jalapeño seeded and finely diced
  • 2-3 Tbsp fresh cilantro chopped
  • 3 Tbsp lime juice
  • ¼ tsp salt
  • ¼ tsp black pepper

Instructions

  • You can watch the video in the post for visual instructions.
  • First, peel and dice the mango. Do this by first peeling the mango, then carefully slicing either side of the pit (the ‘cheeks’) and dicing the flesh.
    Alternatively, leave the peel on, slice away the cheeks, use a sharp knife to score the flesh (about every ¼-inch apart in a grid pattern). Then press the peel side to invert the fruit (like a hedgehog) and slice/scoop the diced pieces away from the peel.
  • Then dice the bell pepper, red onion, and jalapeño (remove the ribs/seeds for a milder flavor). Also, halve the tomatoes, chop the cilantro, and juice the lime.
  • Finally, combine all the ingredients in a medium bowl, stir well, then taste and season with salt and pepper. Enjoy!

Notes

  • For the best flavor, allow the flavors to meld and develop in the refrigerator for about an hour before serving.
