Carrot casserole
2 servings
40 minutes
Carrot casserole is a delicate and aromatic dish of Russian cuisine that combines the health benefits of carrots with the soft texture of cottage cheese. Its roots trace back to the village tradition of making simple yet hearty casseroles. The light sweetness of brown sugar, the gentle tartness of kefir, and the vanilla aroma make it an ideal option for breakfast or a cozy family dinner. The carrots give the casserole a sunny hue and pleasant juiciness, while semolina adds structure. It can be served as a standalone dish or complemented with sour cream, honey, or berries. It's not just food; it's a piece of home warmth infused with the traditions of Russian cuisine.
