Notes

1. Jalapeno is a medium sized green chilli pepper typically used in Mexican cuisine. You can substitute it with any green chilli pepper of your choice.[br]2. To make your mango salsa spicy, do not remove the seeds from the Jalapeno or the green chilli pepper you are using.[br]3. Make sure the mango used is perfectly ripe. Slightly tangy, but definitely sweet. It is best to use firm mangoes to make this salsa.[br]4. If you are serving in the nachos cups, fill the cups just before serving.[br]5.
