Method

Step One

To prepare the carrot patties, first, peel and grate the carrots. Then, in a large bowl, mix the grated carrots, eggs, flour, fresh dill, and parsley. Season with salt and pepper according to your taste.

Step Two

Melt the butter in a large non-stick skillet over medium heat. Using your hands, form small patties from the carrot mixture and place them in the hot butter. Cook until browned on both sides, about 3-4 minutes per side. Remove the patties from the pan and keep them warm.

Step Three

To prepare the mushroom sauce, clean and slice the mushrooms. Heat some butter in a skillet over medium heat and add the garlic. Cook until fragrant, then add the mushrooms. Cook until the mushrooms are browned and tender, about 5-6 minutes.

Step Four

Pour in the vegetable broth and bring it to a simmer. Cook until the broth has reduced by half, approximately. Stir in the sour cream and fresh parsley, then season with salt and pepper to taste. Cook until the sauce has thickened, about 5 more minutes.

Step Five

Finally, serve the carrot patties with the mushroom sauce on top. Enjoy this delicious and nutritious meal!
