Ingredients (Serves 4–5)

  • 1 large carrot (approx. 115 g / 4 oz), finely grated

  • 1 large egg

  • 150 g (5.3 oz) mozzarella cheese, grated

  • 1 clove garlic, minced

  • 2 tbsp (8 g) fresh parsley, finely chopped

  • Salt and pepper, to taste

Optional Topping:

  • 1 tsp sesame seeds

  • 1 tsp poppy seeds

  • ½ tsp dried herbs (like oregano or thyme)

Instructions

1. Prepare the Base

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).

  2. Squeeze excess moisture from the grated carrot using a clean kitchen towel. This prevents soggy rolls and ensures crispiness.

2. Mix the Dough

  1. In a medium bowl, combine:

    • Grated carrot

    • Grated mozzarella

    • Egg

  2. Add minced garlic, chopped parsley, salt, and pepper.

  3. Stir until the mixture forms a thick, sticky dough.

3. Shape the Rolls

  1. Divide the mixture into 4–5 equal portions.

  2. Roll each portion into a small cylinder (log shape).

4. Add Topping (Optional)

  1. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

  2. Place rolls on the sheet.

  3. Sprinkle sesame seeds, poppy seeds, and dried herbs evenly on top.

5. Bake

  1. Bake in preheated oven for 15–20 minutes.

  2. Remove when cheese is melted and rolls are golden brown.

6. Serve

  1. Let rolls cool for 2–3 minutes.

  2. Serve warm for the best cheesy pull.
