Where to find ingredients
You can find carrots, milk, and eggs in the produce and dairy aisles of any local Canadian grocery store. Parmesan cheese is typically located in the specialty cheese section or the dairy aisle. If you prefer a stronger flavor profile, you can substitute the standard parmesan with aged Reggiano, though standard grated parmesan is ideal for the texture here.
Preparation method
- In a blender, combine the cooked carrots, milk, eggs, and half of the parmesan cheese.
- Process the mixture until completely smooth and homogeneous.
- Lightly grease a baking dish or ramekins with butter or oil and coat with a little parmesan if desired.
- Pour the blended carrot mixture into the prepared baking dish.
- Sprinkle the remaining parmesan cheese over the top if using.
- Bake in a preheated oven at 180°C (350°F) for 20 to 30 minutes, or until the soufflé is golden brown and set in the center.
