Ingredients
  

  • 4 slices fresh pineapple finely diced, tough core discarded
  • 1 avocado finely diced
  • 1 shallot finely diced
  • 1 lime zest and juice
  • ½ tsp salt
  • ½ tsp crushed chili flakes or finely diced fresh chili, optional
  • 2 tsp freshly chopped parsley or coriander
  • 1 tbsp olive oil

Instructions
 

Dice the pineapple, shallot and avocado

  • Finely dice the fresh pineapple, discarding the tough core.
  • Dice the shallot very fine.
  • Dice the avocado in small cubes.

Mix the salsa

  • Add the pineapple to a bowl with the shallot, olive oil, salt, chili flakes, lime zest, and lime juice.
  • Gently fold through the diced avocado.
  • Stir everything gently, the pineapple will release a little juice.
  • Stir through the chopped parsley or coriander.

Taste and serve

  • Add a little more lime juice if the pineapple is very sweet, or another pinch of chili flakes if you want more heat.

Notes

For tacos, dice everything quite finely so the salsa sits neatly in the tortilla and you get pineapple, avocado, lime, herbs, and shallot in every bite.
This is best served fresh. To prep ahead, dice the pineapple and shallot first, then add the lime, herbs, avocado, and oil just before serving.
Storage:
Keep leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 1 day. The avocado will soften and darken a little, so fresh is best.
