Vegetable casserole with zucchini and carrots

4 servings

60 minutes

Vegetable casserole made from zucchini and carrots is a light, nutritious dish that combines the softness of zucchini with the sweet note of carrots. In Russian cuisine, casseroles hold a special place as a convenient way to prepare vegetables while preserving their taste and beneficial properties. The casserole turns out tender with a golden crust thanks to the sour cream-egg filling. Semolina makes the texture denser yet airy. This dish is perfect as a light dinner on its own or as a side dish for meat and fish dishes. Serving it with sour cream adds softness, while grated cheese adds zest. The casserole fits perfectly into the menu of those who follow healthy eating and will be an excellent option for children as it is not only healthy but also incredibly tasty.
