Begin by carefully peeling the pomelo, discarding the thick outer skin. Remove the pulp in chunks or smaller bites as preferred.

Finely chop half a red onion and a handful of fresh cilantro leaves, setting them aside.

In a large mixing bowl, combine the pomelo pulp with the chopped red onion, cilantro, and finely sliced green chili. Add a pinch of salt and a teaspoon of sugar.

Using your hands, carefully toss the salad to ensure all the ingredients mingle nicely.

Serve immediately or let it rest for about 10 minutes to allow flavors to meld.
