1 1/2 | c | Peeled, diced jicama |
3/4 | c | Seasoned rice vinegar |
1 1/2 | lb | Unshelled peas, or 1 pkg. |
10 oz. frozen tiny peas | ||

1/4 | c | Finely chopped fresh mint |
8 to 16 large butter lettuce | ||

INSTRUCTIONS
In a bowl, combine jicama and vinegar; let stand for at least 15 minutes or up to 5 hours. If using fresh peas, shell them; you need 2 cups. In a 2- to 3-quart pan, cook shelled peas in about 1 inch of boiling water; uncovered, stirring occasionally, just until peas are bright green and heated through (2 to 3 minutes). Drain, immerse in cold water until cool, and drain again. ( Don't cook frozen peas.) Mix peas and chopped mint into jicama mixture. To serve, use a slotted spoon to ladle salad equally onto 8 lettuce-lined plates. Garnish with mint sprigs. Spoon any extra dressing over salads, if desired.
