Pico de Gallo

This vibrant pico de gallo is a staple of Mexican cuisine, prized for its exceptionally fresh and zingy profile. Unlike blended salsas, this vegan condiment relies on finely diced raw ingredients to create a chunky, colourful topping that balances the sweetness of ripe tomatoes with the subtle heat of jalapeño. Soaking the white onions in iced water is a professional tip that removes any harsh bite, ensuring the finished salsa is crisp and refreshing rather than overpowering.

As a versatile plant-based accompaniment, this homemade salsa is the perfect partner for crunchy tortilla chips or as a topping for loaded nachos and tacos. It also works beautifully as a healthy side for grilled proteins or stirred through a zesty quinoa salad. High in vitamin C and low in fat, it is a nutritious way to add a punch of flavour to any festive meal.
