Spicy Fruit Salsa

From My Carolina Kitchen

This is My Carolina Kitchen's version of The Food Shack in Jupiter, Florida's spicy fruit salsa. We serve the salsa with broiled salmon, but it would be equally good with any fish, especially rare tuna. Don't make it too far in advance or it tends to get watery.

1 large mango, peeled and diced

1 large nectarine or peach, peeled & diced

1 tomato, peeled, seeded & diced

1 small red onion, thinly sliced or well chopped

Juice of ½ to 1 lime

1 tablespoon hot pepper such as jalapeño, minced

2 to 4 tablespoons rice vinegar

1 to 2 tablespoons honey

1 to 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil

2 tablespoons minced cilantro

2 tablespoons fresh basil, cut in chiffonade

Place all ingredients in a bowl and gently toss. Season to taste with salt & freshly ground black pepper. Serve within 30 minutes of mixing as it can get watery. Do not omit the cilantro or the basil. Serves 4.
