Peach Salsa

Here comes the first recipe of summer. It is already so hot here that I don't feel like baking or cooking that takes long time standing in front of the hot stove.  I had bought few peaches this weekend. I love all kinds of fruits and I am the only one who likes to eat peaches and plums in our house. When I tasted one, it was sour. It was ripe, but sour. So, I thought of making something with it and here comes a peach and corn salsa. Usually Salsa is served with chips or some other main course. I ate it as is and it is delicious.
 One Year Back - Chickpeas and Tomato Rice
Two Years Back -  Bisibelebhath, Savory Sourdough Aebleskiver, Minty Coconut Rice
Three Years Back -  Sourdough Applesauce Spice Cake
Ingredients: 

Peach - 3 medium to large pitted and chopped into small pieces (I did not remove the skin, but you could)
Corn - 1 ear boiled in salted water and shucked (Or use about 1 heaping cup of frozen corn kernels microwaved for 3 - 4  minutes and then cooled)
Jalapeno - 1 or two green chillies minced
Garlic - 1 clove minced
Cilantro - chopped 1/4 cup
Onion - 1/2 of a medium one chopped fine (Preferably red onion, but I was out of it so used yellow onions)
Salt - to taste
Sugar - 2 tsp (optional but adds taste)
Lime juice - from half a lime

Method:
Combine all the ingredients in a bowl. Chill in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours before serving.
