Variation

One secret to a great salsa is to take the time to cut all the ingredients as small as you can. This makes it much easier to scoop up all the flavours in one bite. Another salsa secret is the delicious balance of sweet, sour, salty, spicy and savoury flavours. This recipe uses about half a melon. The other half is best enjoyed cut into wedges and slurped outside!
