I shredded 10 cups of organic carrots so that took a bit of time but it was worth it! This dish turned out delicious and it works for my family as we are all on a plant-based diet.
Amazing – I left out the saffron as I could not find any. Still was delicious
Yummy! I served it with chopped up almonds, fresh ground Cardamom and coconut cream with a little bit of white sugar cooked into it. It was delish!
I love this recipe! I really appreciate that it is vegan. I want to eat it with every meal. I have made it a couple times. I sweetened it with coconut sugar. I like crunch, so I added 1/2 cup of the silvered almonds. This past time I threw in some crumbled tofu to add some protien to it.
