Transfer to a 1-quart (1 L) bowl and reserve. Add the garlic, jalapeño
pepper and onion to the prep bowl, pulse 5 to 10 times to chop. Remove
and add to chopped red pepper. Add mango and cilantro to prep bowl and
pulse until mango reaches desired chopped consistency, about 10 to 20
pulses. Transfer to the bowl with the chopped red pepper and reserve.
Stir in the lime juice, vinegar, and honey. Cover and let sit for 30 minutes
to allow the flavours to blend. If not using immediately, cover and
refrigerate. Mango Salsa is best when served the day it is prepared, but
may be prepared up to one day ahead. Remove from the refrigerator 30
minutes before serving for best flavour.
