    Title: Mango Salsa
    Categories: Mexican, Salsa
    Yield: 1 Batch

    2 Fresh red fresno chillies
    2 Ripe mangoes
    1/2 White onion
    1 bn Fresh cilantro
    1 Lime; juice and grated zest
    -of

    To peel the chillies spear them on a long-handled metal skewer and
    roast them over the flame of a gas burner until the skins blister and
    darken. Do not let the flesh burn. Alternatively, dry fry them in a
    griddle pan until the skins are torched.

    Place the roasted chillies in a strong plastic bag and tie the top to
    keep the steam in. Set aside for 20 minutes.

    Meanwhile, put one of the mangoes on a board and cut off a thick slice
    close to the flat side of the stone. Turn the mango round and repeat
    on the other side. Score the flash on each thick slide with
    criss-cross lines at 1 cm / 1/2" intervals, taking care not to cut
    through the skin. Repeat with the second mango.

    Fold the mango halves inside out so that the mango flesh stands proud
    of the skin, in neat dice. Carefully slice these off the skin and
    into a bowl. Cut off the flesh adhering to each stone, dice it and
    add it to the bowl.

    Remove the roasted chillies from the bag and carefully peel off the
    skins. Cut off the stalks, then slit the chillies and scrape out the
    seeds.

    Chop the white onion and the coriander finely and add them to the
    diced mango. Chop the chilli flesh finely and add it to the mixture
    in the bowl, together with the lime rind and juice. Stir well to mix,
    cover and chill for at least 1 hour before serving. The salsa will
    keep for 2 to 3 days in the fridge.
