Food: Mango Relish




Hello there! It's Heather from The Lovely Cupboard. Any fans of mangoes out there? Today I'm sharing my recipe for mango relish. This side dish can be eaten with corn chips as a snack, used in a salad, or even added as a topping to fish. Mangoes have been one of my favorite fruits since I was a kid.


Growing up in Texas, we had mangoes many months of the year, but they are best during the spring and summer months. May is a great month to purchase them, since mangoes from Florida are starting to be sold in stores. Here's what else you'll need to pick up for the relish:


Cooking Instructions:

1. Cube one large mango. (See pic below.)
2. Peel a cucumber and dice 1/2 of it adding to the mango.
3. Dice 1/2 of a red onion and 1 small red pepper.
4. Finely chop one handful of cilantro and add to the vegetables.
5. Whisk together the juice of 1/2 of a lime, 1 teaspoon of honey, and a pinch of salt.
6. Add to the veggies and combine. Chill in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes before serving.



How beautiful is this little side dish? It's such a healthy and colorful recipe to serve to friends and family this spring. I've even been known to grab a fork and eat it straight from the bowl...
