Description

Crispy, low-carb air fryer jicama fries seasoned with sweet paprika and garlic: an easy keto swap for potato fries.

Ingredients 

  • 12 ounces jicama, peeled and cut into fry-shaped sticks
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon sweet paprika
  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder
  • ½ teaspoon salt

Instructions

  • Boil the jicama sticks for 10 to 12 minutes, until tender.
  • Drain, pat dry, and toss in a large bowl with the olive oil, sweet paprika, garlic powder, and salt.
  • Preheat the air fryer to 400°F. Arrange the fries in a single layer in the basket.
  • Air fry for 15 to 20 minutes, flipping halfway, until golden and crispy.
  • Serve immediately with your favorite dipping sauce.

Equipment

  • Air Fryer
  • Sharp chef's knife or sturdy vegetable peeler
  • Cutting Board
  • Large pot (for boiling)
  • Colander
  • Paper towels
  • Large Mixing Bowl
  • Tongs (for flipping)
  • Parchment paper (optional)
  • Baking sheet (oven method only)

Notes

Cook in batches if needed so the fries aren't crowded. For the oven, bake at 400°F for 25 to 30 minutes, flipping halfway. Store leftovers up to 3 days and reheat at 375°F for 3 to 5 minutes.
