Pummelo Avocado Salsa

I created this recipe after researching pummelos. I kept finding it paired with avocados in different things, so I put together a quick salsa. I was a bit worried about the cilantro, but the final product was very tasty.

Ingredients
  

  • 1/2 pummelo
  • 1 avocado
  • 2 tablespoons diced red onion
  • 2 tablespoons diced green pepper
  • 1 tablespoon fresh cilantro
  • Kosher or sea salt and fresh ground black pepper to taste

Method
 

  1. Remove the segments from the pummelo. I cut the rind off, then cut out the segments. You don’t want the membrane, as it is very tough. You just want the juicy pulp.
  2. Remove the pit from the avocado and scoop it out of the skin.
  3. Dice the onion and the pepper.
  4. Chop the cilantro.
  5. Mix all of the ingredients in a bowl. Salt and pepper to taste.

Notes

Makes about 1 cup of salsa. I ate this with tortilla chips, but it would be good with pita chips or different crackers. No cholesterol, high in dietary fiber, and very high in vitamin C.
