Instructions
- Step 1: Prep the Pineapple. Start by taking your pineapple slices and chopping them into bite-sized chunks. Place them in a large mixing bowl.
- Step 2: Add the Onion. Add the chopped medium onion to the bowl. Keep the pieces slightly large so they offer a nice crunch alongside the pineapple. Mix them well.
- Step 3: Toss in the Tomato. Add the chopped small tomato to the pineapple and onion mixture. Give it a gentle mix.
- Step 4: Add the Spice and Tang. Toss in the finely chopped green chilli and the raw mango (kairi). Be careful not to add too much raw mango, so the salad doesn't become overly sour.
- Step 5: Season the Salad. Add freshly chopped coriander leaves, salt to taste, half a teaspoon of masala, and a tiny pinch of sugar to beautifully balance all the flavours.
- Step 6: Final Mix. Stir everything together thoroughly so the spices coat the pineapple chunks evenly. Your delicious Quick Indian Pineapple Salad Recipe is ready to be enjoyed!
