Try these fries and maybe you won't go back to potato fries again. These keto fries are made with healthy olive oil which beats those regular fries deep fried in vegetable oil. You also get the benefits of eating jicama with all the fiber it contains. You can eat jicama raw or cook it.
Jicama Fries Recipe
Ingredients:
1 medium jicama
1 Tbsp. olive oil
Salt
Garlic powder
Smoked paprika
Directions:
Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.
Peel the jicama with either a potato peeler or a knife. Cut it in half and then cut ¼ inch thick slices. From there cut the jicama into french fry size sticks and place in a pot. Cover with water and a lid and bring to a boil.
Once boiling you can remove the lid and continue boiling for 10- 12 minutes. Drain into a colander and cool for a couple of minutes. Lay the fries out onto a clean towel or paper towels to absorb the excess liquid. Place paper towels on top to blot dry.
Put the fries in a bowl and add the olive oil. Mix to coat all the fries. Then season with salt, garlic powder, and smoked paprika. Toss and repeat the seasonings.
Place the fries on a parchment covered baking sheet in a single layer so they are not touching.
Bake at 425 degrees F. for 30 - 45 minutes depending on how brown and crispy you want these keto fries to be. You will turn the fries over about half way through the cooking.
Once the fries are as dark and crunchy as you like, they are done.
Enjoy!

Thank you Robin.
I'm looking forward to trying these! They look delicious. Have you tried using them as a substitute for mashed potatoes yet? I would love to see a video on how to prepare them.
Thank you so much 🙏💟
I am making jicama fries tonight. I did cut up jicama the same way I would cut up a potato and I put it in my crock pot with beef and onion as a replacement for potato it actually turned out very good. It was a little undercooked but tasted very good
WOW, AMAZING , CANT WAIT TO TRY THIS, THANK YOU FOR THIS GAME CHANGING INFOMATION . THIS MIGHT BR GREAT FOR THE AIR FRYER. 👍🏾🙌🏾❤️😇
I'm going out to buy jicama. Ty for your recipe😊
Absolutely going to try this. I eat them raw as an evening snack all the time. I like in Mexico 🇲🇽 so they are inexpensive here.
Yes, I love them raw, and I sometimes add Chamoy and shake some Tajin on them. Mmmmm
Looks delicious
I've never had Jicama before. I didn't know they are similar to potatoes. Thanks for sharing the health benefits and of course your jokes.
Jicama is a great snack or salad addition too. Cheers!
Great video and recipe!!
Thank you 😋
Looks delicious 🤤!
Thanks!
Will try
Hope you try the mashed jicama sounds good
thanks for the recipe , robin
You are welcome Randy!
rocking robin, one thing many video presenters do is allow the drained liquid to go down the drain. the discharge is actually very good low plant fertilizer any time of the year.
Thanks for sharing!
Love this recipe taste like actual French fries. Yum yum yum,
Thank you for trying out the recipe and sharing your feedback!
New sub…I like your style lol! Thank you for the video. Making these as we speak. Will check out your roasted radishes as well. 🤩
Welcome to my channel! I hope you enjoy the jicama fries and the radishes. I make these all the time! Enjoy!
Yes please to the mashed jicama. 🤤 your roasted radishes video opened so many possibilities for me.
I'll look into it. I love the roasted radishes, now I can eat them!
@@RockinRobinCooks I've been using them for breakfast "potatoes". I'm so excited to discover new-to-me keto friendly vegetables.
Great video, Amazingly, I brought a jicama a few days ago, and have been eating them as a snack, and doing fed in salads.I am going back to the city, I live in Bermuda to buy another one to make these fries. Thank you
You are welcome Beverley! Enjoy the fries!
YAAAZ JICAMA MAMA!!!!
Great recipe! And the jokes were funny too😁👍
Glad you enjoyed!
Thank you!
You're welcome!
😄👍Good Stuff, Great Tips
Thanks! 👍
Thanks!
You’re welcome Brie!
I love jicama sprinkled with some fresh lime and chili powder. Will give this a try in my air fryer! Thanks Robin 🍟
You are welcome! I like the sound of that!
This is the stuff!!!!!!
Glad you like it! Thanks for watching!
Thanks for the recipe! I am going to try making this. 😊
You are welcome! Thanks for stopping in!
I do low card and eat Jicama raw. You also don't need a knife to peel it since you can peel the skin off like a banana. The big ones are very fibrous so I buy the smallest one I can find. I eat this since I was young. It's very satisfying and very filling to eat. Enjoy.
Hello Robin. New to your channel. This my first time growing Jicama. I am glad that I found your channel. I am going to try this recipe. I have never eaten Jicama either. So this going to interesting. Thank you for providing this tutorial.
Welcome to my channel! I hope you enjoy the jicama fries. While you are making them, do try them raw and see what you think. They are also a great addition to a salad and add a nice crunch. Don’t expect a lot of flavor as they take on flavors that you season them with.
@@RockinRobinCooks thank you for responding.
This is my favorite. I gotta try it. Great ideal. Love the jokes.
Thanks so much Julia!
You make me want to say, "Thanks, grandma!"😊
You are welcome!
i was thinking what else to do with the jicama that i was given,and Google and your video came up 👍 like your info. about the jicama, i visit México,and always same old🥴
jicama whit spice pepper and lemon and salt.
but thank for all you explanation
and the fries 🍟 joke 😅 and i will do it right now TANKS a bunch.🥰👏👍
I just bought one and cut it up. Now I’m ready to try this 😀
Let me know how you like it!
Thanks Robin! I would love to see how to make mashed jicama like potatoes. My daughter eats low carb and misses fries and mashed potatoes. This seems like a great alternative ☺️
Hi Diana, I don't if jicama would work. Haven't tried it yet. However, I do have a video on using cauliflower to make mashed potatoes. Check it out: czcams.com/video/VUAWY7CSJek/video.html
According to a label for nutritional value, a jicama has 58 grams of carbs
@@joanshornack561 so it's not keto friendly ???😥
@@afolks3306 it’s got a lot of fiber. As long as you are doing net carbs then it would work!
Lots of fiber, much less carbs than a potato.
Those are some impressive fries, Robin.
Thank you Byron! I appreciate you stopping in!
Yummy 😋 do they still taste delicious if I make enough for two or three days? I like to batch cooking 🧑🍳
I always see that vegetable is the stote but never occurred to try it. I will soon. Thank you so much..
Ana incollingo, from Lawrence nj
Hi Ana, I hope you get a chance to try jicama whether it's the fries or even fresh. It's good for you.
These look super duper cannot wait to try..maybe make them to go with a burger..Do you have a recipe for a moist turkey burger or meatloaf..either one will do
Hi Beverlee, here is a link to my moist turkey burger recipe czcams.com/video/TMcWRLy65nc/video.html enjoy!
Thanks Robin🩶🩶🩶😋😋😋
A client of mine just brought me my first Jicama and i was looking it up to see what to do with it and now i Know !!! LOL Love the joke to funny !!!
It’s a process but they look delicious 👍🏻
I had never heard of jicama? Is it potato-like or onion-like , or something else? I am a subscriber and enjoy and have tried many of your recipes . Keep up the good work .
To me it tastes similar to a radish
Looks yummy!😋
Thanks! Hope you try it!
A joke for you:
What goes in a honeymoon salad? Lettuce alone.
I peeled mine with a potatoe peeler
Isn't olive oil good for up to 350 degrees?
inulin is the same stuff in Jerusalem artichokes also called fartichokes. Boiling helps remove the inulin from what i've read. And let me tell you, if you don't get rid of the inulin to some capacity...you will be farting like you've never farted before. Jerusalem artichokes are very good btw, nutty potatoe.
Who knew artichokes could be so adventurous? Thanks for the warning!
If we like crunchy foods, would we just not boil them?
Is rutabaga more flavourful
Certainly they could be deep fried?
How is this cutting carbs when one medium Jicama has more carbs than fries?
😍
Thanks Cherie!
Do you think you can put the boiled ones in the freezer to take out in batches, kind of like frozen french fries? Thanks for the video!
I’m not sure Elizabeth. Give it a try and let me know!
I looked it up just the other day. It says that jicama freezes well
Hi Robin, did you ever try making mashed jicama? We make jicama fries all the time, as well as use it as potatoes in hash. But haven't tried mashing as it doesn't seem to get soft enough. But maybe we're not boiling long enough?
I haven’t tried making mashed jicama yet. It could be that it won’t get soft enough but the hash sounds good. 👍 I may give the mash a try sometime.
@@RockinRobinCooks I saw another video where they used an instant pot to cook the jicama, so tried it last night. They did get much softer. Perhaps letting them cook longer is the trick. Will try again.
I love jicama and thank you for the recipe. But, I have a question. Why do we need to boiled the jicama? Can we use it without cooking it first?
Great question! Boiling the jicama helps to soften it and bring out its flavor.
Let's see mashed jimaca
They were sweet 😔 more similar to sweet potato to me. Has anyone cooked and gotten a closer taste to a potato? I need tips! Thanks
Does it not lose its nutrients when boiled?
Good question. I know the fiber remains. Not sure about the rest.
Don't overthink or overcomplicate Jicama.
Peel, cut in half, slice the halves into chip sizes, and crosscut into shoe string potato (French) fries.
Lay on plate, dribble olive oil, then sprinkle your favorite seasonings, and microwave for 5 minutes.
Jicama is the perfect thing to cook in a microwave.
Better than French fries.
Actually, you can peel it without a knife. You can use your fingers. It has layer like onion. That way you won't lose a lot of the precious meat. Pinch a part of the top and pull it all the way down. If you find it difficult to use your fingers, you can use knife only at the start, then pull.
Thanks for sharing!
What do they taste like before you put all those spices?
Jicama has a very mild flavor. Sort of like and apple but not nearly as sweet. Or sort of like a potato. That’s why there are plenty of spices in this.
Why salt and garlic powder rather than garlic salt?
Hi Chris, I like to be able to control how much salt I add to a recipe and the garlic also. I really don't know what the proportions are when they are combined like that. Also I like to choose the kind of salt I use. I currently mostly use Real Salt because it is less refined and contains minerals. Great question!
I can no longer physically cut jicama so I rely Trader Joe's for their cut jicama sticks.
Yup, those will work!
Jicama is best when its eaten raw
Out of curiosity, if your body can't digest jicama, how can we benefit from the nutrients?
I was referring to the fiber. You got it right!
why do you have to boil the Jicama first??
Just to soften them a bit.
hahaha Dad jokes from a woman
Btw, mashed jicama is amazing as long as you add cream and butter
How about air frying them?
I think it would be great! I am borrowing one from a friend and will see how it turns out. I will post my results in the comments in a couple of weeks.
@@RockinRobinCooks I have one…I’m going to try it today🤗
air fryer hint, heat on a lower setting fir-example 15 minuters. the last 3-4 minutes bump the temperature 50° to crisp it and wa la.
good to see females are left handed. fact:
right handed people work out of the left side of the brain.
left handed people work out of the right side of the brain.
sooooooo all left handed people are in their RIGHT mind.
Hahaha 🤪!
Why can't the peels be eaten.?
Poison in peel
Love the jokes
Raw crisp jicama is delicious - this cooked version really not so much.
I always thought it was a fruit since everyone eats them raw 🤣.
Came for the recipe, stayed for the jokes
Hahaha thanks Max!
Too much work for me 😂😂
Jicama is HIGH CARB!
It's not. Look it up.
For starters you should know how to pronounce this word, which is "HEE cah MAH".
Inulin is an example of an insoluble fibre, but the words aren't synonymous.
Wash all botanicals which have been growing in or upon the earth. The soil is the reservoir for many, many bacteria, including those in the family Enterobacteriaceae. Especially important in food borne illness are Escherichiae, Campylobacter, and Salmonella.
Even though you're peeling this root, surface contaminants will be carried onto the flesh and your preparation surfaces with each knife stroke.
I'm going to Americas Test Kitchen.
But pronounce this Spanish word properly.
Bad joke
Thank you for the recipe. It seems to me a bit of a stubborn vegetable 😂. No matter how long I boil it before frying, it stays hard…Will try baking them , as you suggest. 😊
