Sweet ripe and juicy mangos can be hard to find so take your time. I seem to come home with bruised ones all the time so I always buy a few extras. The mint and cilantro really make this dish pop but if you’re not a cilantro lover then switch it up with parsley or leave it out all together and toss in a few extra leaves of mint.

Try this salsa with my white fish taco recipe, they fit perfectly together!

Mango: rich in skin-friendly nutrients like vitamin C, vitamin A and E, this sweet and juicy fruit encourages the production of collagen, speeds skin healing and may reduce signs of aging.

Mint and cilantro: rich in antioxidants, herbs elevate the fresh flavour of any dish.

Jalapeño: adds a little punch of heat.
