Mango salsa over vermicelli

6 servings

Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
8 ounces Vermicelli or other fine strand pasta
cup Diced mangoes
¾ cup Diced sweet red peppers
½ cup Diced red onions
½ cup Diced sweet green peppers
3 tablespoons Olive oil
3 tablespoons Lemon juice
2 teaspoons Crushed garlic
½ cup Chopped corander or parsley

Directions

1. Cook pasta in boiling water according to package instruction or until firm to the bite. Rinse with cold water. Drain and set aside.

2. In bowl of food processor, combine mangoes, and all other ingrediants. Process on and off just until finely diced. Pour over pasta; serve at room temperature.

TIP: Use a ripe sweet mango for a more intense flavor. If unripe, mangoes are unpleasantly sour. I have used papaya instead of mangoes.

Make ahead>>> Prepare salsa early in the day and refrigerate. (This will also allow it to develope more flavor.) Pour over pasta just before serving.
