Hi there! I'm Lynley Jones, the creator of Adventure Kitchen. I'm a curious cook, writer and mom and I created Adventure Kitchen for curious cooks and eaters of every age. I share new recipes each week, create the spice blends in our Store, lead summer camp, and I have fun creating quirky recipe series such as Why Did the Chicken Cross the Globe? and A Series of Unfortunate Recipes (based on the Lemony Snicket books and Netflix series).
A spicy Indian-style curry that uses the whole beet plant from root to leaf. Caramelized beet cubes sauteed along with their stems and leaves in a mixture of onions, garlic, ginger, chiles and Indian spices, and served over spiced yogurt.
