Step 1
Peel the jicama and slice it into thin rounds using a mandoline with a crinkle-cut blade or a waffle blade attachment.
Step 2
In a large pot, bring water to a boil and blanch the jicama slices for about 5 minutes to slightly soften them. Drain and pat them dry with paper towels.

Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

In a large bowl, combine the olive oil, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, black pepper, and cayenne pepper. Mix well to form the seasoning mixture.
Step 5
Toss the blanched and dried jicama slices in the seasoning mixture until they are evenly coated.
Step 6
Spread the seasoned jicama slices in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.
Step 7
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, flipping the fries halfway through, until they are golden brown and crispy.

Remove from the oven and let cool slightly. Sprinkle with chopped fresh parsley before serving.
Step 9
Serve warm and enjoy your low carb seasoned waffle fries as a delicious snack or side dish.
