These carrots in sour cream in a frying pan are an excellent side dish. Tasty and healthy. I recommend another good option. Fried carrots with onions are suitable not only as a side dish, but also as an independent dish, and I also add it to soups.

I cooked carrots in sour cream in a frying pan, stewed with onions. I cut the carrots into thin cubes and cut the onion into quarter rings. During the stewing process, I also added water little by little so that the vegetables did not burn. I didn’t really look at the time; I focused on the desired degree of readiness. The spices I used were salt, paprika, black pepper and garlic. I really liked the result: the light sourness of sour cream goes well with the sweetish taste of onions and carrots, and the spices added pungency and piquancy. Today I made an independent dish; in the future I will be happy to prepare this recipe as a component of a complex side dish. Thank you, Zhemchuzhina!
