Guest guest Posted January 6, 2008 Report Share Posted January 6, 2008 Carmelized Jicama w/Apples & Pears!!! (I use presliced Jicama) Sprinkle lemon or lime juice on 1 1/2 cups jicama then freeze for 1 day (without freezing, the jicama will not soften up enough to carmelize) Heat skillet & melt 1/2 cup of whatever margarine you use (I use a soymilk based one) add to heated skillet: 1 1/2 cups jicama (thawed) 1 1/2 cups apples (any will do - I use Pink Ladies or Braeburn) 1 1/2 cups pears (I use either Anjou or Comice) Once these begin to brown a bit, add 1/4 cup warm water, 1/2 cup granulated sugar & 1/2 cup brown sugar Once the fruit begins to carmelize, sprinkly nutmeg & nutmeg liberally over the mixture & stir well to combine We usually wrap the warm mixture into whole wheat tortillas and wrap them, then brush lightly with olive oil & sprinkle a bit of granulated sugar then bake until lightly browned on 350 - makes individual " pies " and are SO YUMMY!!! OR, you can easily use the mixture to top a frozen desert or top with oatmeal to make a cobbler/crisp!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
