Delicious low-carb "tortillas" for tacos and enchiladas made with jicama. These are grain-free, keto, and vegan-friendly. You can eat them raw for a crispy texture or steam them if you like a softer texture.
Ingredients
- 1 large jicama
Directions
Step 1
Wash jicama thoroughly with cool water and remove all dirt using a vegetable brush. Trim both ends of the jicama and peel with a vegetable peeler, removing all skin and tough flesh.
Step 2
Cut jicama first in half crosswise, then cut each half into paper-thin slices using a sharp knife or the thinnest blade of a mandoline.
Step 3
Use them immediately as crisp tortillas, or store them for up to a week in a resealable plastic bag in the fridge.
Tips
Jicama "tortillas" can be softened in different ways: 1) Place them in a steamer insert and steam over boiling water for 2 minutes. Drain over a kitchen towel. 2) Place them in a microwave-safe bowl with 2 tablespoons of water, cover, and microwave on high for 2 minutes. Drain over a kitchen towel. 3) Heat a large griddle over medium heat. Brush jicama tortillas with a small amount of oil and heat 30 seconds per side, until soft.
