This lovely salad is a crunchy and refreshing blend of jicama and colorful fresh vegetables that will light up a simple dinner. Jicama is a crunchy, slightly juicy vegetable that tastes like a cross between an apple and a raw potato. It is native to Mexico, and it is also prominent in Asian cuisine. It’s just really tasty, to me!
Ingredients
- 4 cups thinly sliced jicama
- 2 thin slices red onion
- ½ cup carrot strips
- ½ cup red bell pepper strips
- 1 stalk celery, cut into matchsticks
- 1 green onion, thinly sliced
- 2 teaspoons white sugar
- 4 tablespoons rice wine vinegar
- 3 tablespoons avocado oil
- 4 teaspoons fish sauce
- 2 teaspoons honey
- ½ medium lime, juiced
- ½ teaspoon Sriracha hot sauce, or to taste
- salt and ground black pepper to taste
- ½ cup sliced almonds
- ¼ cup minced cilantro (Optional)
- 1 tablespoon cilantro leaves (Optional)
Directions
Step 1
Combine jicama, red onions, carrots, red bell pepper, celery, and green onion in a large bowl. Sprinkle white sugar over the vegetables, stir well, and refrigerate for 20 to 30 minutes.
Step 2
Combine rice wine vinegar, oil, fish sauce, honey, lime juice, and Sriracha in a jar with a lid. Close the lid and shake vigorously. Season vinaigrette with salt and pepper.
