Treat your ingredients with care...

  • Mango — Choose ripe mangoes for the salsa to ensure a sweet and juicy flavor.
  • Rombo fish — Make sure to pat the fish fillets dry before applying the spice rub to ensure a crispy texture when cooked.
  • Jalapeno pepper — Adjust the amount of jalapeno according to your spice preference. Remove the seeds for a milder salsa.

  • If rombo fish is not available, you can substitute it with other white fish fillets such as halibut or sole.
  • Serve the Kissuto Rombo with steamed rice or a side of roasted vegetables for a complete meal.
  • To save time, prepare the mango salsa in advance and refrigerate it until ready to serve.
  • Experiment with different herbs and spices in the mango salsa, such as mint or ginger, to add your own twist to the dish.
