Ingredients:


1 cup rocotillo chiles -- stems removed (8-12 chiles)

Preparation / Directions:


Simply chop the chiles (remove the seeds), along with the mango, onion, and bell peppers, and combine. Add the lime and orange juice and mix well. Chill for at least one hour before serving.

Your best bet for finding fresh rocotillos is probably your local Latin marke
