Carrot casserole with olives {vegan}

Cocotte de carottes

Ah l’automne et ses envies de petits plats mijotés, ragoûts et cocottesil n’y a pas si longtemps je revisitais le stroganoff, mais aujourd’hui voici une version 100% vegetables : une recette de cocotte de carottes aux olives. Les légumes mijotés, c’est vraiment le genre de petits plats que j’adore, je suis d’ailleurs une grande fan de tajines de légumes (avec option citron confits, ou olives, or both !).

Cette cocotte de carottes c’est un peu ma petite robe noire de cet automne

car elle s’adapte à tout, en plat unique ou alors sur des tagliatelles, ou encore froide en tartine avec de l’houmous (oui car ne nous cachons pas, hummus is life !). In short, I couldn't resist cooking the pretty multi-colored carrots from my dad's garden.. Okay to tell you everything, purple carrots completely lose their color when cooked (I had the same disappointment one day with purple green beans that turned completely green again when cooked. !), but hey each variety brought a little extra touch to this dish. Don't panic if you only find orange carrots, this carrot casserole will not be any less good or presentable !

    Great recipe idea for cooking carrots differently!
    I tested the recipe by just removing the vegetable broth (I'm not a fan of ready-made ones and I didn't have time to make one) and replacing it with water. And everyone enjoyed it.
    I made it with orange carrots only. (no color core in stock at this time!).

      I am like you, It was difficult for me to find a good vegetable broth (because I don't have time to do it myself), but I am lucky to find one from a bulk producer not far from my home ! I’m glad you liked the recipe anyway 😉
