Ingredients and Substitutions
To make this delicious tangy mango salsa, you will need the following ingredients:
- mangoes - make sure to use ripe mango for the best results. For a delicious substitution, consider trying papaya or peaches.
- red bell pepper
- red onion
- jalapeño - this adds a little spicy kick. Feel free to leave it out if you prefer.
- fresh cilantro
- lime juice
The best part about mango salsa is that it is extremely easy to customize. Not a fan of any of these ingredients? Just substitute them with something else. Consider adding in green onions, scallions, leeks, or even shallots, fresh basil or parsley, and freshly squeezed lemon juice.
How to Make the Best Mango Salsa
First, combine the mango, bell pepper, red onion, jalapeño, and cilantro in a mixing bowl and stir until evenly mixed. Then, drizzle with lime juice and toss well to coat. Let the mango salsa sit for 5-10 minutes to allow all the flavors to infuse into each other. Serve immediately with a side of tortilla chips or tortilla strips.
How to Store
If you don't eat all of your mango salsa in one sitting like me, you can store it in the refrigerator in an airtight container for up to 3 days. But the sooner you eat it, the better. Your veggies will start to get soggy the longer they sit together.
