How to make fresh watermelon mango salsa by hand
Get your biggest cutting board out and get ready to start chopping!
It’s best if you start with the bigger fruits – watermelon and pineapple first.
Cut the larger fruit pieces into ~ 0.5 cm pieces.
They will fit on a tortilla chip well if you cut them this size.
