Creamy carrots (traditional method & Thermomix)
Description
Over the last few months, I've been making these creamed carrots for my family. It's a very simple recipe, but incredibly tasty. Perfect as an accompaniment to breaded fish, grilled meat or, if you prefer vegetarian like me, simply with rice or steamed potatoes. Another advantage: they can be cooked in advance and reheated very well.
