About This Recipe
Mango Salsa Dip is a simple recipe, that hardly takes 10 minutes to get ready. It is sweet and spicy at the same time, that makes it even more irresistible.
This 7 ingredient dip is super easy and quick to make, it will take hardly 10 minutes from your kitchen time. You just have to mix chopped mangoes, tomatoes, onions, jalapeno, cilantro, lime juice, extra virgin olive oil, and salt. Yes, it’s that easy!
It is also very low in calories. One serving has less than 50 Kcal.
I paired this salsa with Za’atar Spiced Pita Chips this weekend and it was a hit with everyone. The tangy and sweet flavors were a riot in the mouth and the mildly spiced pita chips made a perfect balance with the salsa.
Though, I have not used red bell pepper or other bell pepper, if you want then please add it.
Ingredients
Mangoes – The star of this dish is Mangoes. Choose the ones which are ripe and juicy for the best taste. Indian mangoes are the best to make this dish. Try and source some from any Indian store near you.
Apart from mangoes, you will need regular salsa ingredients like onion, tomato, jalapeno, cilantro, salt, and lemon juice.
Olive oil is also added to add some flavor. Use a good quality olive oil, as it surely enhances the taste of your Salsa.
You can roast the tomatoes, remove the charred skin and then chop them for a smoky flavored salsa.
Step by Step Recipe
Add all the ingredients in a bowl.
Mix well until combined.
Using a potato masher, mash the ingredients until they slightly come together.
Refrigerate the salsa for a few hours before serving.

Salsa tastes best when it is made fresh and the same goes with mango salsa too.
As said it stays good in the fridge for 2 days, you can prepare it ahead of time. But I like to make it fresh, as that’s the way it tastes the best.
I wouldn’t recommend freezing this salsa. But if you still want to freeze it, you can freeze it in an airtight container for about 2 months. Before serving, thaw it in the refrigerator overnight.

A great recipe at the right time. Now, it is the mango season in India and I think salsa is surely going to go in my list!
I have made the sweet mango variation and also the one with a semi sweet- sour variation (the mango will be half ripe) and my family likes both of them!

I love the idea of using semi ripe mango to make salsa. It will taste so yummm.
