Jicama Fries w/ Cheddar Cheese

Jicama Fries are incredibly easy to throw together in an Air Fryer. You can
certainly bake them or get your own personal deep fryer. Although I'm quite fond
of the Air Fryer setup. It's quick and easy with very little fuss. The taste is
also quite similar to deep fried French fries without the horrendous mess of
actually having to have a vat of deep fryer oil on your kitchen counter. Not
that this is an unsponsored advertisement for air fryers. But they truly are one
of my favorite gimmicky kitchen appliance that is actually worth it!

🧂 Ingredients

1/2 jicama

sliced
dash salt
dash pepper
spritz high heat oil
1/3 c. cheddar cheese

grated

Instructions

1 Cut jicama into roughly 1 inch wedges.
2 Lightly coat on all sides with salt, pepper, and oil.

I have an olive oil spritzer that I like to spray on the fries and then sprinkle
with salt and pepper. However, you can easily toss in a bowl.
3 Arrange wedges in the basket of the air fryer, making sure that there is space
between them. It's okay if they touch a little because you will end up rotating
them. However, there does need to be some air flow between the potatoes for them
to crisp properly.
4 Cook at 400°F for 7-10 minutes, or until the edges have begun brown.
5 Rotate the jicama, either by flipping them one by one or shaking the basket
until the have turned over. If they're starting to brown or blacken too quickly,
spritz with more oil.
6 Cook at 400°F for another 5-7 minutes. Cooking times will vary based on the size
of the wedges and amount of oil.
7 Serve immediately. Fries do not keep crisp long!
