Jicama and Pomegranate Slaw

This jicama and pomegranate slaw is a vibrant, refreshing addition to any meal, offering a delightful crunch and a burst of seasonal colour. As a heart-healthy salad, it relies on the natural sweetness of pomegranate seeds and the crisp, apple-like texture of jicama to create a beautifully balanced flavour profile. The addition of fresh mint and coriander provides a fragrant lift, making it a perfect accompaniment to grilled fish or spicy roasted vegetables.

Quick and easy to assemble, this dish is an excellent choice for those seeking a nutritious, homemade side that does not compromise on taste. The zesty lime and pomegranate molasses dressing adds a sophisticated tang, while a short chilling time allows the savoury and sweet ingredients to meld. It is a wonderful way to introduce more fibre and antioxidants into your diet with minimal effort.
