Ingredients:
- 1 ripe mango
- juice of 1 lime to taste
- coriander (optional but awesome)
- 1/2 red onion
Directions:
- Cut mango cheeks and remove skin by using the glass method (super easy way to get the flesh out!) or simply cube them and remove cubes . You want to cut them into fairly small pieces (1/2 cm). Add to bowl.
- Cut red onion into small pieces and add to bowl, the amount you use is totally up to you - don't go too much though else you loose the sweetness of the mango!
- Chop and add coriander if you're using it.
- Squeeze some lime juice over the ingredients, again to taste.
- Enjoy!Â
