Time to get back on the stick here, methinks.
I'll launch right into my latest party offering, Jicama Salad. (Jicama (HEE-cah-mah) is sometimes called the Mexican apple. Locate one and give it a taste - I think its inbetween an apple and a potato, in texture and taste)
JICAMA SALAD
1 medium can mandarin oranges
1 jicama (1-2lbs is fine), peeled and chopped into bite sized pieces
1/2 cup raisins
(equal parts of:)
some of the mandarin juice
a few spoonfuls of olive oil
lime juice
chopped cilantro
chopped mint
(equal but smaller parts of:)
sugar
chile powder
salt
Mix up the dressing, pour over the oranges, jicama, and raisins in a bowl. Mix well (try not to kill the oranges), and let sit for a few hours if possible before serving. Serve at room temperature.
Serves 8-10 as a side dish.
