Ingredients
- •600 g jicama, cut into sticks
- •2 tbsp lime juice
- •1 tsp chili powder
- •1/2 tsp salt
Directions
- 1Peel the jicama thoroughly; the skin and the fibrous layer just beneath it both need to come off.
- 2Cut it into thick batons roughly the size of a finger.
- 3Toss the batons with the lime juice until evenly coated.
- 4Sprinkle over the chili powder and salt and toss again.
- 5Chill fifteen minutes so it is properly cold.
- 6Serve with extra lime wedges.
💡 Peel deeper than looks necessary. The layer under the skin stays woody and fibrous however thinly you slice it.
