Mango Salsa

Pretty easy Mango Salsa to make for a topping on fish or chicken or perhaps just for a snack.

Ingredients:

2 fresh red (fresno) chillies
2 ripe mangoes
1/2 white onion
bunch of coriander (cilantro)
Juice of 1 lime

Directions:Dry fry the chillies in a frying pan till the skin is scorched. Once scorched place the chillies in a zip lock bag and seal for about 20 mins. Meanwhile cut off a thick slice the mango close to the flat side of the stone. Then turn it around and do the same on the other side. Slice the flesh on each think slice with criss-cross lines at about 1/2 inch intervals, do not cut through the skin. Repeat with the second mango. 

Fold the the mango halves inside out so the mango flesh stands out. Slice each piece off the skin and into a bowl. Cut the pieces to the size desired.

Remove the chillies from the bag and carefully peel off the skin. Cut off the stalk, slice in half and de-seed.

Chop the onion and the coriander finely and add them to the diced mango. Chop the chillies finely and add it the mixture. Add the lime juice and mix. Cover and chill for about 1 hour.

Enjoy :)

Delicious Homemade Salsa

Who doesn't like salsa?? Have you ever thought to yourself that you would like to make your own but it might be a bit complicated so you just buy "store bought". Let me fill you in on my salsa for you to make and enjoy.
This salsa took me literally less than 10 mins to make. Its just something I came up with tonight as I was thinking what to snack on.

My wife and I have made many different salsas in the past and they have all been yummy. What I came up with tonight though is probably the easiest yet best tasting to me so far.

Whats in it

• 5-6 medium vine tomatoes - chopped
• 1/2 white onion
• 3 garlic cloves - peeled and crushed
• 1/2 - 1 jalapeno seeded or not depending on how hot you want it. I like mine hotter
• 1 teaspoon of honey
• 1/2 teaspoon of salt
• 1/4 teaspoon of cumin
• 2 Tbsp of Tomato Paste 
• 1/2 teaspoon of Tabasco Chipotle Sauce (optional)
• Medium size handful of cilantro (coriander UK)
• Juice from 1 lime  

*What I have been doing lately is use 6 medium sized on the vine tomatoes.



Put all in a food processor or blender
and blend for about 30 secs or a bit
more depending on what texture you
would like.
