After tasting a similar salsa on top of fresh fish at a fishing tournament, I went home and tried to duplicate it. This is my surprising result! It's terrific with cinnamon pita chips. -Sylvia Fincham, New Bern, North Carolina

Time 15m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

Ingredients

1/4 cantaloupe
1/4 honeydew melon
1 mango
1/2 red pepper
5 cherry tomatoes (firm)
1/2 red onion
1/2 clove garlic or 1/2 clove garlic salt
1 lime, juice of
cilantro
salt and black pepper
1 dash cayenne pepper
3 -5 slices star fruit, for garnish

Steps:

I also like to add a couple of sprinkles of Cumin.
It adds a really nice flavour.
Honey is also optional, if the lime is really tart, you may want to add a small teaspoon of honey.
Cube the melons, mango, and red pepper.
Quarter the cherry tomatoes.
Slice the red onion into very thin rounds.
Combine in a bowl.
Sprinkle with 1/2 tsp.
garlic salt, or mix in pulversized garlic.
Add the lime juice.
Chop and add the cilantro leaves.
Sprinkle with black pepper, cayenne, salt, and cumin.
Mix together.
(At this point the smell is heavenly).
Garnish with a few thin slices of star fruit.
(For me this is purely an aesthetic thing).
If it is too sour, add a bit of sugar or honey.
