Step‑by‑Step Instructions for Mango Salad
- Start by selecting ripe, juicy mangoes. Dice the mango into small, uniform pieces, about half an inch. Next, finely chop a red onion and a bell pepper of your choice, ensuring they’re similar in size to the mango for even distribution.
- In your mixing bowl, gently combine the diced mango, red onion, and bell pepper. Use a rubber spatula to avoid crushing the delicate mango while mixing. Aim for a colorful blend.
- In a separate small bowl, whisk together fresh lime juice and olive oil until well blended. Adjust the acidity to taste by adding more lime juice if desired.
- Pour the prepared dressing over the mango and vegetable mixture. Use a gentle folding motion to combine everything, ensuring that each bite is coated with the dressing.
- Sprinkle your choice of fresh herbs, such as cilantro or mint, atop the salad. Season with a pinch of salt to elevate all the flavors.
- Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate the salad for about 10 minutes. After chilling, give it one last gentle toss and serve it in a wide serving bowl.
