Recipe instructions

Step 1

Step 1
How to bake carrot cutlets in the oven? Prepare your food. Wash the carrots thoroughly with a brush under running water. You can take ready-made breadcrumbs, or you can make your own. To do this, dry the bread or loaf in the oven and grind it in a convenient way into fine crumbs. Milk of any fat content is suitable.

Step 2

Step 2
Peel the carrots and grate them on a fine grater.

Step 3

In a frying pan of a suitable size over low heat, melt the butter and place the prepared carrots in it. Simmer the carrots over moderate heat, stirring occasionally, for 5 minutes.

Step 4

Step 4
Pour milk into the pan, add a little salt and stir. Simmer the carrots until soft. At the same time, cover the pan with a lid and do not forget to stir so that the carrots are stewed evenly.

Step 5

When the carrots are soft, sprinkle semolina over the entire surface. Mix the carrot mixture thoroughly so that semolina lumps do not form. Adding semolina will make the carrot mince more viscous, and the finished cutlets will be more filling.
