Jicama-Mango-Citrus Salsa

Jicama adds an interesting texture to this salsa recipe. And the combination of citrus and mango is both sweet and piquant.

• 1 large mango
• 1/2 cup jicama, peeled and diced in 1/4 inch pieces
• 1 jalapeno pepper, deseeded and minced
• 1 orange
• 1 grapefruit
• Grated zest from orange

METHOD

Peel mango over a large bowl to catch any juices that may drip. When peeled, remove as much flesh as possible and set aside. Continuing to work over the bowl, scrape whatever flesh clings to the pit into the bowl.

In a similar fashion, peel orange and grapefruit over the bowl to trap the juices. When peeled, cut into segments, then cut segments in half. Cut reserved mango into 1/4 inch cubes.

Put citrus and mango into bowl with all other ingredients and toss gently to thoroughly blend. Serve immediately.

Yield: About 4 cups
