Step 1
1. Peel the carrots and onion, then dice them into small cubes. Sauté the carrots and onions in vegetable oil. It's better to cut the carrots into pieces rather than grate them. Clean and rinse the mushrooms, slice them, and fry together with the carrots and onions. Add the mushrooms to the sautéed carrots and onions, stir, and continue frying for 7 minutes. You can add a couple of tablespoons of water.
