📖 Instructions

1. First, let's gather our ingredients. Make sure your mangoes are nice and ripe—they should give slightly to the touch. Not rock-hard, but not squishy mushy either. You'll also need some red onion, a few jalapeños (or leave them out entirely; it's your party!), a big bunch of cilantro, and some juicy limes. Oh, and don't forget a pinch of salt!
2. Next, chop everything up. Dice the mangoes into roughly half-inch pieces. Finely dice the red onion—no one likes a big chunk of raw onion ruining their salsa experience! Mince the jalapeños if you dare. And roughly chop the cilantro. Don't overthink it. Unless you're into perfectly even cilantro pieces. Which...I'm not.
3. Now, for the magic. In a medium-sized bowl, gently combine the diced mangoes, red onion, jalapeños (if using), and cilantro. We don't want to crush the mangoes, so go gently, my friend. Next, juice at least one lime over the mix, more if you like things super zesty. A little salt will bring all the flavors together—just a pinch, to start, and taste as you go.
4. Give it a good stir. Taste test! Adjust seasoning as needed; more lime juice? More salt? Maybe a teeny-tiny pinch of sugar for extra sweetness, if your mangoes are a bit tart. That's the beauty of homemade—it's all about personal preference, my friend!
5. Once you've achieved salsa perfection, cover your bowl and let it sit in the fridge for at least 30 minutes. The longer it sits (up to a few hours), the more the flavors will meld together. Mmm, flavor fusion!
