Pachyrhizus erosus

The pachyrhizus erosus, also know as Jicama, has only been used as an ingredient in a salad, until today.

I discovered jicama fries, apparently a popular street-food treat in Mexico. Who knew? Certainly not me otherwise I would have been chowing down on these a long time ago!

These ones I made with chilli powder, lime juice, freshly cracked sea salt and black pepper. It is missing something. I'm going to have to tweak the recipe. Suggestions?
