In addition to the recipe, you need to know what and how to process.
In the case of frying, if you start frying the carrots and then add the onion, the onion will not fry, but rather stew.
The only difference is that the mixture is prepared in different pans.
In other cases, professionals always fry the onion first.
How to proceed
1. Fry the onion over moderate heat for 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally.
It is important to fry it so that it has time to brown, but not burn.
2. When it is ready, reduce the heat and put grated or chopped carrots in the pan with the onions.
3. After this, the vegetables are cooked together until the carrots become soft.
4. Unlike onions, carrots are fried over low heat so that they have time to cook and not burn.
5. Be sure to stir the mixture to ensure that the vegetables are cooked evenly.
After adding carrots to the pan, their cooking time is 5-7 minutes.
A properly prepared vegetable mixture will determine the taste of the soup or salad, as well as other dishes that the hostess is going to cook with the addition of fried vegetables.
