Learn the simple steps to make crisp jicama fries in the air fryer or baked in the oven. These healthier French fries are crunchy, tender, and oh-so delicious!

Ingredients
- 2 large jicamas
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/8 - 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
Instructions
- Set out a large sauce pot and fill with water halfway.
- Use a vegetable peeler to peel the jicama. Then carefully slice into fries that are ½ inch thick. Place the fries in the water as you cut.
- Once you’ve cut all the fries, set the pot over medium high heat. Bring to a boil and boil the jicama fries for 10 minutes to soften. Drain well in a colander.
- Once the fries have parboiled, preheat the air fryer to 400°F.
- Pat the fries with a paper towel then place them in a mixing bowl. Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with salt, garlic powder, and cayenne. Toss well.
- When the air fryer is hot, add a couple of large handfuls of jicama fries to the fry basket. They can overlap a little bit but make sure not to overfill the basket.
- Air fry the jicama fries for 12 to 16 minutes, stopping to shake the basket in the middle.
- Repeat in remaining batches if needed. Keep the cooked fries warm in a low temperature oven.
Notes
- Pro Tip: For best results, cut the fries as even as possible.
- Baked or air-fried jicama is best to eat fresh and hot. Leftovers technically will keep well for up to 4 days in an airtight container in the fridge. However, the fries will not be as delightfully crunchy and soft once you reheat them.
- But if you must save jicama French fries, I highly suggest you reheat them in the air fryer. Heat the fryer to 400°F and cook for only about 2 minutes.
