Ingredients:

  • 2 medium ripe peaches, pitted and diced (approximately 300g / 10.5 oz)
  • 1/2 red onion, finely diced (approximately 50g / 1.7 oz)
  • 1 jalapeno pepper, seeded and minced (adjust to taste, approximately 10g / 0.35 oz)
  • 1/4 cup fresh cilantro, chopped (approximately 10g / 0.35 oz)
  • 2 tablespoons fresh lime juice (approximately 30ml / 1 fl oz)
  • 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil (approximately 15ml / 0.5 fl oz)
  • 1/4 teaspoon sea salt (approximately 1.5g / 0.05 oz)
  • 1/8 teaspoon black pepper (approximately 0.5g / 0.02 oz)
  • Optional: 1/4 teaspoon honey or agave nectar (approximately 2g / 0.07 oz), depending on the sweetness of the peaches.

Instructions:

  1. Pit and dice the peaches into small, even pieces.
  2. Dice the red onion finely. Mince the jalapeno pepper, removing the seeds for less heat. Chop the fresh cilantro.
  3. In a mixing bowl, combine the diced peaches, red onion, jalapeno, and cilantro.
  4. Add the lime juice, olive oil, salt, and pepper to the bowl. Add honey or agave as needed.
  5. Gently toss all the ingredients together until well combined.
  6. Taste the salsa and adjust seasonings as needed, adding more lime juice for tanginess, jalapeno for heat, or salt and pepper to taste.
  7. For best flavour, cover the salsa and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavours to meld.
  8. Serve the Peach Salsa chilled or at room temperature.
