Creamy Carrot Sauce Recipe ~ Molho de Cenoura
Report
This Easy smooth Carrot sauce was inspired by a Brazilian Carrot sauce recipe that I came across where the carrots are left shredded and cooked in tomato sauce. This version blends them into a creamy sauce with other ingredients and the result is amazing! It's a mellowed out tomato sauce that's is incredibly thick and creamy from the carrots. It's savory, with a hint of sweet. I love it with pasta, but it also goes great poured over chicken, fish, potatoes, rice, or any vegetables. Or just pour a small bowl, grab a piece of crusty bread and dunk!
