Yucatecan salsa recipe

- 1 small red Latin Specialties Onion, finely diced
- ½ cup sour orange juice (or ¼ cup orange juice and ¼ cup Latin Specialties Limes juice)
- 1 ripe tomato, diced (optional)
- 2 tbsp chopped Latin Specialties Cilantro
- Salt, to taste
Method
- Mince the habaneros, wearing gloves, and combine with the onion in a bowl.
- Add the citrus juice, tomato and cilantro and season with salt.
