Here's a great, fresh twist on the traditional Salsa recipe, which adds a terrific level of sweetness with an exotic Eastern twist!

This is a delicious fresh homemade, mango salsa with vibrant reds and yellows, and just bursting with colour and flavour.

It takes no time to prepare and the mango gives it a beautiful sweet twist.

Begin by quartering the tomatoes, remembering to remove the seeds as they can make the final Salsa a little watery. Chop them up nice and finely.

Now as with all salsas, it's really important to use only the freshest, juiciest ingredients as the finished product will be so much better.

As always it's important to use a good sharp knife for this as it makes the whole job so much easier.

Now take half a red onion and chop this up finely also. I prefer mine a little chunkier than the tomatoes as it gives it that extra bite and crunch. Again a good knife will mean you're not crushing and bruising the onion when cutting. We want the onions to say nice and crisp.

Next we add a Jalapeno pepper to offset the sweetness of the tomatoes and mangos with some heat.

Remember to scrape out the seeds as is we don't want these in the final dish and chop them up nice and finely and add them to the bowl.

This time we're using some coriander, which really compliments the sweetness of the mango and tomatoes use the stalks as well as the leaves.

Now for the mango, slice just to one side, avoiding the stone in the middle.

Now with a sharp knife pierce the mango and run the knife down the length of the mango. Turn it 90 degrees and do the same, slicing the mango in a kind of checkerboard fashion.

Now all you need to do is turn it inside out and cut away the chunks.

Add to the bowl and give the whole thing a really good mix to really get the flavours to know each other.

Now add a some rock salt and pepper to taste along with a glug of extra-virgin olive oil and a good squeeze of lime.

It's important to taste at each step of the way just make sure you have right balance of flavours.

And there you have a terrific mango salsa, great as a side dish or and works really well with curries as part of a starter with poppadum's to compliment the minty Raita dip!

Go on, try it yourself!
