Step‑by‑Step Instructions for Mango Salad
  1. 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.
  2. 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.
  3. 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.
  4. 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.
  5. 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.
  6. 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.
