I had read that a mango salsa tastes really good with grilled fish. However, whenever I make grilled fish...my kids eat it as it is ....or with some rice or furikake. So, usually I make it plain and at last minute. This time I made effort to plan and make this salad ahead...so that we could enjoy with our grilled salmon.
Ingredients:
- 1 large mango (I used the thai variety available here)
- 1/2 cucumber (I used the Japanese cucumber)
- 1 large tomato
- 1 small red onion
- 1 avocado (My avocado was raw, so didn't use)
- 1 green chili
- 1/2 lemon (juice)
- A bunch of coriander leaves
- Salt and pepper
Recipe:
- Wash and clean the vegetables.
- Peel the mango and chop it.
- Chop other vegetables.
- Take them all in a platter and toss them together.
- Top with chopped coriander and minced chili.
- Squeeze lemon over it.
- Season with salt and pepper.
- Refrigerate for about 15 mins, if you are serving it, as a salad or a dip or it can be served at room temperature too.
Quantity:
- Increase lemon juice or chili if you want to make it tangy or hot.
- My mango was quite sweet, and I preferred the salsa to be on the sweeter side than spicy or sour, so I preferred using the said quantity of chili and lemon.
- I served with grilled salmon. It can be served as a salad, or as a dip for nachos/chips.
