Jicama, Mango and Red Onion Salad
A delicious and simple salad with only a few ingredients Jicama, Mango and Red Onion. Better tasting if made a day ahead, and using a very fresh and crunchy Jicama, and almost green/hard mangoes.
If you haven`t tried a jicama yet, I will say it is a hybrid between a raw potato and a chayote or a guinea arrowroot (lerenes). It has no specific flavor at all, and can be easily use in any dish cooked or raw, like in this salad.
This is how a jicama looks like, and you can find it in all Latinos markets at a very low price.
For the Jicama, Mango and Red Onions Salad:
1 big jicama
1 big hard mango
1 big red onion
For the Salad Dressing:
1/4 c orange juice
1/4 c lime juice
1/4 c olive oil
1 t dijon mustard
salt and pepper to taste
Thinly slice or use a Mandoline slicer, to cut the 3 mayor ingredients, the jicama, mango and onion. Mix the dressing and add.
Let it rest in the cooler before serving, preferably one day ahead. Use as a side dish, or alone. Tangy, sweet and sour delicious salad, that everyone will love.
