Sounds so wrong, there is nothing to give an edge to the dish. Salsa of sweet mango with the fatty fulness of the salmon. And then use it with microwaved tortillas, sorry but it sounds plain gross.

Microwaving the tortillas is only to warm them :D The tortillas from the store are already pre-cooked, they're just at room temperature. I don't have a tortilla warmer or anything, so I have to rely on what I have. you don't have to do this step if you don't want to. I guess you could always bake it, but that doesn't seem very energy efficient in my opinion.
The salsa isn't that sweet, actually. It's a little bit sour due to the lime and has some tang from the red onions. the acidity will cut the fat of the salmon though.

Thanks for your feedback! :D
I think some chili would improve it a lot
I'm all for chili, but unfortunately I cook for someone who is very sensitive to spices. So I typically leave out extra spice.
but adding chili to almost any dish will work! Just don't add too much otherwise you might overwhelm the dish.

what is dill
Dill is an herb. It kind of has this lemon-y flavor. You can find it dried or fresh at most grocery stores.
It looks like this:
I think a container of dried dill will cost you $2 or $3. It's $1.99 at Trader Joe's. Fresh dill is usually a bit cheaper. Personally, I stick with dried because it's a bit more cost effective for me.
Fresh herbs are always better, but if you don't plan on using the whole thing, it can be a bit wasteful.

Is there any way to reverse the texture and have crunchy tacos + raw salmon?
very similar flavors. :D Or you can try doing a salmon ceviche like this recipe:

Thank you so much for your support! I'm glad you're enjoying my blog. I definitely don't have any plans to stop writing, so expect more food blogs here! haha
I've never had the opportunity to cook salmon actually, nor do I use the mango at all in normal cooking... this recipe is amazing! I must try it, besides, I'm in the mood for some nice tacos.
Your cooking forces me, once again, to hit the store, kierpanda, and not once yet have I regretted it.
A random trick from my grandma to never get dry salmon: After throwing it in the pan, do one side (ideally the one with skin) for the usual 4-5 minutes, then turn it around and turn off the heat completely. Add a lid on top of the pan if you have one. After another 4-5 minutes the salmon is done but thanks to the heat level steadily dropping it stays nice and juicy.
