In a medium bowl, combine the diced ripe mango, finely diced red bell pepper, and finely diced red onion. Ensure all the vegetables are cut to a similar size for a pleasant texture in every bite.

Add the chopped fresh cilantro and the minced jalapeño (if using) to the bowl. Stir gently to distribute these aromatic ingredients throughout the salsa mixture.

Pour in the fresh lime juice and the olive oil. Season with salt and black pepper. Toss everything together gently for about 1-2 minutes until all the ingredients are well combined and glistening.
- 4
Allow the mango salsa to meld its flavors for at least 15-20 minutes at room temperature, or chill in the refrigerator for a more refreshing taste. This resting period allows the ingredients to harmonize beautifully.

Tips & Notes
- If substituting olive oil for butter, use about 3/4 the amount (olive oil is 100% fat, butter is ~80%).
- Caramelize onions over medium-low heat for 30–45 minutes for a sweet depth; rush at high heat and they'll be bitter.
- These keep well for up to 5 days — make a batch at the start of the week for easy grab-and-go snacking.
