1. 1. Chopping and Mixing IngredientsBegin by peeling, seeding, and finely chopping the red tomatoes. Similarly, finely chop the small white onion and the jalapeño pepper after seeding it. In a mixing bowl, combine the chopped tomatoes, onion, jalapeño, and cilantro.
   2. Adding Flavor and ZestSqueeze the juice of half a lime over the mixture. This adds a tangy and zesty element that beautifully complements the other flavors. Sprinkle in salt and pepper according to your taste preferences.

1. Final Touch of Olive OilDrizzle a tablespoon of olive oil over the mixture. The oil not only enhances the overall texture but also marries the flavors, resulting in a harmonious blend.
2. Mixing and BlendingGently toss all the ingredients in the bowl, ensuring an even distribution of flavors and colors. The cilantro, lime, and jalapeño will infuse the mixture with their enticing aromas.
