Mango Salsa

I don't have any pictures of this one, but it's worth it.

It is also quite a bit of work, but it's worth it.

2 mangoes
1/4 cup fresh cilantro
1/4 cup fresh mint
fresh ginger to taste
1/4 cup white onion
1 lime

Peel and dice mangoes (this takes a while). Place in a large mixing bowl.

Roughly chop cilantro, mint and white onion, then add to mangoes. Juice lime and pour over mixture, stir.

Peel and grate ginger. Start with a nice sized chunk of the root, stir into salsa, then add small amounts until desired zing has been reached.

Let sit, covered, in the fridge. Overnight is best.

Some notes about the ginger- This recipe makes quite a lot of salsa, so you can be generous with the ginger. It is also a different kind of spicy than many people are used to. Also, consider the recipe amounts more like guidelines- a little bit more or less isn't going to hurt a thing. Enjoy.
