Mango & Jicama Salad

It seems summer has come early this year to Seattle. We will have more rainy days for sure, but we can enjoy this fresh salad for now. Obviously this is not a Spanish recipe but it is always good a pinch of innovation.

Ingredients for 4 people:
-2 Mangoes not too ripe.
-1 Jícama.
-1/2 Red Onion.
-1 Bunch of Cilantro.
-1 Lime or Lemon.
-1 Teaspoon of Chile flakes.
-Spanish Olive Oil.
-A Couple of Pinches of Salt & Pepper.

Dice the red onion and soak it in water while you prepare the rest of the ingredients. Cut the mango and jicama in cubes or sticks, place them in a salad bowl. To prepare the dressing, mince the cilantro (approximately a cup), squeeze the lime/lemon and mix both things with the chile flakes and the Spanish olive oil, add the salt and pepper.
Rinse the onion and put it in the salad bowl along with the mango and jicama. Pour the dressing over the ingredients and serve.
