What Are Jicama Fries?
If you haven’t been properly introduced to jicama fries yet, then I am happy to be the first one to tell you about them! Jicama is a starchy root vegetable that has a similar texture to a potato. But it is even healthier, and because it’s so similar, jicama makes the best fries! You won’t be able to tell the difference. I like to cut them up and add flavorful seasonings and throw them in the air fryer, and you have yourself incredible jicama fries. Fries are our favorite snack or side to any burger! We love fries so much at our house and always have fries in the freezer to throw into the air fryer whenever we want. Regular French fries are a must in the air fryer, but have you tried cooking up some frozen sweet potato fries? They are insanely delicious (plus they are easy)! And you absolutely cannot forget the waffle fries. They are excellent in the air fryer too!
