Pico de gallo

Start to finish: 2 hours, 20 minutes

Ingredients

  • Two medium/large tomatoes, chopped
  • 1 onion, chopped
  • Half bunch of fresh cilantro
  • 1 jalapeño, chopped and partially seeded (depending on how hot you want it)
  • 1 cup bell peppers, sweet peppers or similar, chopped
  • 1 Tablespoon garlic
  • Juice from 1 lime
  • Salt to taste
  • 1 honey mango, chopped (optional)

Instructions

Chop the vegetables (and the mango, if you like) and add them to a medium-sized bowl. Stir the vegetables while squeezing the lime juice and sprinkling the salt. Keep adding salt and lime juice until it tastes right to you. Refrigerate at least two hours before serving, but leaving it overnight is best.
