Jicama With Orange Cucumber Mango Red Chile Lime Recipes

Steps:

• Mix vegetables with lime juice and let sit 20 minutes.
• Pile on platter, sprinkle with salt, chile powder, cilantro and jalapeno rings.

Steps:

• Peel and segment the oranges with a paring knife (see page 52). Squeeze the empty membranes over a large bowl to release the juices.
• Whisk the chili powder, salt and pepper to taste, the olive oil and lime juice into the orange juice. Toss in the orange segments and jicama. Before serving, add the scallions, cilantro and pomegranate seeds.

Steps:

• Toss jicama, red pepper, mango, and red onion together in a large bowl. Set aside.
• Stir cilantro, lime juice, honey, salt, and cayenne pepper together in a bowl.
• Pour the cilantro mixture over the jicama mixture and toss to coat. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 15 minutes.

Steps:

• Peel and cut the jicama into long thin strips. Slice the cucumbers in half, scoop out the seeds and then cut into strips similar in size to the jicama strips. Peel the mangoes, cut the cheeks off, then slice into wedges. Combine all the ingredients in a large mixing bowl with the chopped cilantro, powdered chile and lime juice. When ready to serve, season with a little salt and garnish with fresh cilantro sprigs.

Add the salsa and lime juice to the orange zest. Taste and season with salt (should be a little salty). Add the jicama and onion, toss to mix well, then let stand for about 30 minutes.
• Cut the stem and blossom ends from all the oranges, then standing each orange on a cutting board and working close to the flesh, cut away the rind and all the white pith. Cut the oranges into 1/4-inch-thick slices. Cut the slices into quarters.
• Stir the orange pieces and optional pineapple into the jicama mixture. Divide the lettuce between individual serving plates, forming it into a rough nest shape. Pile the marinated jicama mixture in the middle. Sprinkle everything with cilantro
