Ingredients
For the Dessert:
Grated Carrots: 300 g (about 2-3 medium-sized carrots)
Sugar: 70 g (approximately 1/3 cup)
Yogurt: 120 g (about 1/2 cup)
Vanilla Sugar: 16 g (2 tablespoons)
Grated Coconut: 150 g (about 1 1/2 cups)
Step-by-Step Instructions
Step 1: Caramelizing the Carrots
Prepare the Carrots: Start by peeling and grating 300 g of fresh carrots. You can use a fine or medium-sized grater, depending on how smooth you’d like the texture to be.
Cook the Carrots with Sugar: In a medium saucepan, combine the grated carrots and 70 g of sugar. Cook the mixture over medium heat for about 10 minutes, stirring frequently. The sugar will melt, and the carrots will soften and release their natural sweetness. Once the carrots are soft and lightly caramelized, remove them from the heat and let them cool slightly.
Step 2: Adding the Yogurt and Vanilla Sugar
Mix in the Yogurt: Once the carrot-sugar mixture has cooled slightly (it should still be warm but not hot), fold in 120 g of yogurt. The yogurt adds a creamy texture to the dish and balances the sweetness of the carrots with a slight tang.
Add Vanilla Flavor: Stir in 16 g of vanilla sugar (or vanilla extract, if you prefer) to add a lovely aroma and extra sweetness.
