Jicama Fries In The Air Fryer Recipe
Introduce a delightful twist to your snack routine with Jicama Fries in the Air Fryer. This recipe transforms the slightly sweet jicama into crispy, golden fries using just olive oil and a blend of savory spices. Ideal for those following a keto, paleo, or gluten-free diet, these fries provide the perfect low-carb alternative to traditional potato fries. With a superb balance of crispiness on the outside and a tender inside, these jicama fries are the way to enjoy a delicious treat any day.
INGREDIENTS
-
- 8 cups Jicama (peeled and cut into fries, about ⅓ to ½ inch thick and 3 to 4 inches long)
- 2 tablespoon Olive oil
- ½ teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Cumin
- 1 teaspoon Sea salt
- ¼ teaspoon Black pepper
INSTRUCTIONS
- Boil a large pot of water on the stove. Add the jicama fries and boil for 18 to 25 minutes, until the color becomes slightly translucent (instead of bright white) and no longer crunchy. Time will vary depending on the thickness of your fries.
- When the jicama is not crunchy anymore, remove and pat dry.
- Set the air fryer oven to 400 degrees (204 degrees C) and let it preheat for 2 to 3 minutes.
- Place the fries into a large bowl. Drizzle with olive oil and season with garlic powder, cumin, and sea salt. Toss to coat.
- Working in batches to avoid crowding, arrange jicama in the air fryer basket in a single layer, preferably with the pieces not touching each other. Air fry jicama fries for 10-12 minutes, until golden. Repeat with remaining fries.
