A super soft pancake, with rice flour, coconut and the brightness of carrots makes the perfect Carrot Dosas either for an evening snack or breakfast. Finger food is preferred around the world for snacks as well and there many that can be made with carrots like the creamy Carrot and Cheese Toast and the mind blowing Baked Carrot and Spring Onion Open Toast, which is an amazing medley of flavors together.

 

Something innovative that is cooked with carrot is Whole Wheat and Carrot Beetroot Savory Muffins.

But if you're looking for something simple, look no further than Stuffed Cabbage Carrot and Cheese rolls, made with leftover rotis and simple veggies.

Carrot is a lovely ingredient that mixes well with a lot of other ingredients to produce impeccable dishes. One of such examples is Rice and Carrot Soup which is a unique combination of a cooked rice and sautéed carrots combined together and had as a meal.

Indian Carrot Recipes

Green Pea and Carrot ParathaGreen Pea and Carrot Paratha

The most basic way that uses carrot in Indian cuisine is by making Carrot Paratha. By simply adding grated vegetables to the atta, you can create so many types of parathas, carrot paratha being one of them. Another way to do it is to stuff the dough to get thick, scrumptious parathas like the Green pea and Carrot Paratha.

 

A lot of Indians make bhakri as well, which is a thick pancake make of rice flour. This simple recipe can be jazzed up with vegetables, for example the Cabbage and Carrot Rice Bhakri, and be given a lovely twist.

Carrots are added to subzis to give them a hint of sweetness. In the Carrot and Methi subzi, carrots perfectly balance the bitterness of the methi with its sweetness. It works well in Broccoli, carrot and Paneer subzi too as all three have different textures and flavors that complement each other very well. Carrots are also added to rice dishes like pulao, and Carrot and Cucumber Curd Rice to enhance the overall taste.
