Ingredients
  

2 ripe mangoes, peeled and diced into small cubes

1 medium red onion, finely chopped for a sweet crunch

2 medium tomatoes, diced for freshness

1 fresh jalapeño, seeds removed and finely chopped (adjust according to desired spiciness)

1/2 cup fresh cilantro, chopped for a burst of herbaceous flavor

Juice of 2 limes for a zesty kick

Salt, to taste

1/4 teaspoon ground cumin (optional, for an earthy depth)

1 tablespoon olive oil (optional, for added richness)

Instructions
 

Start by preparing the fresh ingredients. In a large mixing bowl, combine the diced mangoes, finely chopped red onion, and diced tomatoes. This trio brings a beautiful color and variety of textures.

    Next, add the finely chopped jalapeño to the mixture. Adjust the heat to your preference by either keeping some seeds in for an extra kick or simply adding a second jalapeño.

      Gently fold in the chopped cilantro and squeeze in the juice of the limes. Season the mixture with salt to your liking. For those who enjoy a touch of warmth, sprinkle in the ground cumin and stir to incorporate.

        If you’re aiming for added richness, drizzle the olive oil over the salsa. Use a spatula to gently toss all the ingredients together, ensuring everything is well combined.

          Taste the salsa and adjust the seasoning as necessary by adding more salt or lime juice for brightness.

            Allow the salsa to rest for at least 20 minutes before serving. This waiting period lets all the flavors meld together beautifully, enhancing the overall taste.

              Serve the salsa chilled as a refreshing dip alongside tortilla chips, or as a vibrant topping for grilled chicken, fish, or your favorite tacos.
