Ingredients

  • 4 tangerines
  • 1 medium jicama, peeled and julienned
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • A handful of fresh mint leaves, torn

Мethod of preparation

1. Start by peeling the tangerines and separating them into segments. Heat a non-stick pan over medium heat. Add olive oil and honey, stirring until combined. 2. Place the tangerine segments in the pan and allow them to cook gently until they start to caramelize, turning occasionally for about 4-5 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside to cool. 3. In a large bowl, combine the julienned jicama with the cooled, caramelized tangerines. Drizzle with lemon juice, a pinch of salt, and freshly ground black pepper. 4. Toss gently to combine the ingredients well, ensuring each piece is nicely coated with the lemon dressing. 5. Finally, garnish with freshly torn mint leaves to add an aromatic touch. 6. Serve immediately, or refrigerate for 15 minutes for a chilled version. Enjoy the interplay of sweet and savory flavors!
