THE TOPPING
In this salad the inner skin is left on and in this case the flavor is better; they are a little chewy , but it is worth it.
Mix all the ingredients together, except the toping, and set aside to marinate for an hour or so before eating. Decorate with the cilantro and onion rings and whole chiles if desired. Serve at room temperature.
