These crispy Sriracha Baked Jicama Fries are a great alternative to French fries. They are perfect for a keto diet!
These Sriracha Baked Jicama Fries are spicy, crispy, and crunchy. They are a fun healthy snack that you'll feel good serving your family.
If you've never had jicama before, it tastes like a cross between an apple and a potato. So basically it's crunchy, starchy, sweet, and savory. I see it a lot here in the Southwest.
It works great in place of corn tortillas. My Black Bean Jicama Tacos have crunchy jicama taco shells. For that recipe, I sliced it thinly on a mandoline and placed the filling on top.
For these healthy fries, I served them with vegan chive mayo. I mixed vegan mayo, chopped chives, and lime juice. The mayo helps to balance out the spiciness of the fries by adding a bright cooling note.
Homemade guacamole would work as well. Another recipe you might like is my Sriracha Tofu Fries recipe.

💭 Tip
To peel a jicama, a sharp knife works best. I have found a vegetable peeler to be more difficult.
Slice off the tough skin that covers the jicama. It is easier to slice once you peel away the tough skin.
