Sunchokes I slice and cover with lemon juice and chili powder and

eat, I also prepare jicama this way.

The beets I don't care too mcuh for so I avoid those.

The aquash I would roast or steam and make a pumpkin or squash soup

from a recipe in the files.

Potatoes I steam and sprinkle herbs on and mix with a little

mayonnaise and eat as a side dish.

Hope this gives you a few ideas..Sissy

Hi all,

 

Here's what I have in my fridge that needs to be used up: beets,

sunchokes, and yellow mini potatoes. Of course, I have onions and

garlic. Does anyone have suggestions/ideas/recipes on what I can make

with them?

 

Thanks!!

On this list you'll be looking for hot and spicy suggestions, right? Just at a

rough guess at

your taste, how about sautee-ing the onions with some garlic and adding chunks

of

potatoes and squash with some curry spices (a blend of the usual suspects or use

a

commercial blend) and then coconut milk? As for the beets, there are a couple of

beet

curry recipes in the files too. If you can find the nub end of a cucumber and

some yoghurt

and mint, then you've got a nice raita to go with.

 

Best love, Pat

Hot and spicy would be preferred, that's for sure! But... maybe I

haven't tried the right curry, the only kind I've been exposed to is the

yellow smelly kind, and it really turns me off. Are there other curries

out there that are a lot different?

Curries tend to be aromatic ('smelly' is your word) and yellow in colour because

of the

spices included in them, including turmeric (yellow root). If you don't like

them, then you

don't like them :=) It hadn't occurred to me that you wouldn't, or I wouldn't

have

suggested it. If you indeed dislike Indian curries, then it makes little

difference whether

you use a home-made mix of spices or a commercial blend - it'll all taste

'smelly' to you,

even though curry afficionadoes (which include a huuuuuge number of people)

would

correctly add that home-ground and home-mixed spices are the best.

 

Have you ever tried a vegetarian meal in a good Indian restaurant? Unbeatable.

Unless, of

course, you find them yellow and smelly and off-turning LOL

 

Pat - who absolutely reeks of curry most of the time (don't breathe in!) :=)

See that's the thing... I did eat at an Indian Restaurant and loved it.

It wasn't the yellow curry that I've seen before. What was it??
