    Sriracha Baked Jicama Fries

    Jump to Recipe Pin

    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.

    💭 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.

    Vegan Chive Mayo (optional)

    Add all ingredients to a bowl. Mix until smooth and creamy.
