Pineapple, Papaya & Mango Salsa image

Obviously sweet because of the fruit but a slight hint of heat because of the pepper. We love this on grilled ahi, steamed uhu or aweoweo. I worked out this recipe after several failed attempts. We are blessed to live in Hawaii where fresh-off-the-tree fruit and great pineapples are easy to find, but try it anyway. As a variation, skip the pineapple and use chopped, seeded cucumber. Enjoy!

Time 30m

Yield 4 1/2 cups

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 1/2 cups pineapple, ripe, small dice
1 1/2 cups papayas, ripe, small dice (fresh from tree in HI)
1 1/2 cups mangoes, ripe, small dice (fresh from tree in HI)
1 teaspoon gingerroot, crushed (the prepared kind from jar works)
1/4 teaspoon garlic, crushed (the prepared kind from jar works)
2 tablespoons red onions, very fine chop
6 tablespoons fresh cilantro, well chopped, stay away from the stems
5 dashes Tabasco jalapeno sauce
1 tablespoon lime juice, fresh squeezed
1 ounce jalapeno juice (liquid from jarred jalapenos)
6 slices jalapenos, very fine chop (from above jar, SLICES, not whole!)

Steps:

  • All the work is in dicing the fruit.
  • One whole pineapple is around 2 1/2 cups, 2 medium papaya and 2 medium mangoes are around 2 cups per each fruit to give you a hint about how much to get.
  • Combine everything and stir very, very gently.
  • Chill for at least 6 hours.
  • Keeps in fridge for 4-5 days.
