Mango & Melon Salsa ...Missing Philippine Mangoes



Tomorrow, summer officially starts here in Australia. Mangoes are everywhere but nothing beats Philippine mangoes, in my opinion. They might not be as huge as what we have here but the sweetness is so different. Most of the Philippine carabao mangoes are exported.  Oh well, I have to make use of what is available.

Sharing with you a great side dish for barbie...as what we call barbecues here. Mango and Melon Salsa. My younger daughter enjoyed it to my surprise. Enjoy!

Ingredients:

3/4 c Ripe mango, diced
3/4 c Rock melon, diced
1/4 c finely chopped onion or red onion
1/4 c red bell pepper, diced
2-3 tbsps. Lemon juice
Salt to taste
Pinch of cayenne pepper
Few pieces of mint leaves, finely chopped

Procedure:
Mix all ingredients together. Chill for an hour or two for the flavours to blend together.
Serve with grilled meat or seafood.
