Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 1 medium jicama (peeled and cut into thin slices about 1/4 inch thick (about 4-5 cups))
  • 1 Tablespoon avocado oil
  • 1/2 teaspoon turmeric
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon sea salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • homemade guacamole (for serving (store-bought works too))

Instruction

  • Preheat oven to 400°F.
  • Boil a pot of water on stovetop. Once water is boiling add your jicama slices to the pot and boil for 8-10 minutes. Drain the water and pat the fries dry before coating them with the spices and baking.
  • Once jicama slices are dry add them to a large bowl, add oil, turmeric, garlic powder, onion powder, salt and pepper and toss to coat evenly.
  • Spread the fries onto a baking stone or a baking sheet lined with a silpat mat or parchment paper making sure the fries aren't crowded. They need space or else they will start to steam and get soft rather than crispy.
  • Bake for 30 minutes, take them out of the oven and flip, then bake for another 20-30 minutes or until fries are a little brown and have reached the desired texture.
  • Remove from oven and serve with guacamole for dipping.
