How to consume a local HTTPS ASP.NET Core 2.1 API from Android and iOS simulators

I'm working on a Xamarin.Forms app that requires to consume some data exposed in an ASP.NET Core 2.1 API, I'm developing the service and the Xamarin app so everything is running local on MAC OS.

The problem I'm facing is happening when sending a request to the ASP.NET Core API, it seems to be related to the HTTPS protocol enabled by default in ASP.NET Core 2.1, when I run the api it's enabling by default the URL localhost port 5001 so that is the URL I'm targeting in the Xamarin App.

In Android I can send the request to the API but once the response is sent back, the xamarin app throws the following exception:

Error in AppLoginViewModel.Login Javax.Net.Ssl.SSLHandshakeException: java.security.cert.CertPathValidatorException: Trust anchor for certification path not found. ---> Java.Security.Cert.CertificateException: java.security.cert.CertPathValidatorException: Trust anchor for certification path not found. ---> Java.Security.Cert.CertPathValidatorException: Trust anchor for certification path not found.

In iOS the behavior is the same, the xamarin app throws an exception when receiving the response

I did try installing the self signed certificate (created by asp.net core) in both simulators with no luck, the result is the same
