Fiery Mango Salsa
4-6 large tomatoes, (3lbs), I prefer to use a variety
1 medium onion
2 cloves garlic
1 hot chilli pepper, or jalapeno or hanabero
1 bunch cilantro chopped (1.5 cups)
1 teaspoon lime juice or 1-slice (lemon would also work)
1-2 teaspoon salt
1-2 teaspoon sugar or molasses
1 ripe mango
Slice up tomatoes into medium cubes. Use a super-sharp knife so you get miminal amounts of juices bleeding out. Slice/dice mango. Dice up onion into small cubes, same with cilantro into small pieces. Finely mince garlic into fine pieces 1-2mm. I prefer to use sharp knife to mince to preserve garlic rather than using a crusher. That way the garlic flavor is released when you chew it. Same with hot pepper, cross-chop up into as tiny pieces as possible.
Combine all ingredient from largest to finest. Stir gently to avoid smashing them, especially the tomatoes. Serve with sprinkle of cilantro and mango on top as garnish
