Onions and carrots go well together.

This vegetable stir-fry is perfect for many dishes.

But not every newbie in cooking knows what exactly needs to be fried first so that the treats really turn out delicious.

As housewives note, it is better to put the onion in the frying pan first.

In this case, the vegetable pieces will be golden and soft, and the aroma in the kitchen will be pleasant.

If you do it the other way around, the carrots will start to release juice, which means that the onion will not be able to reach the desired degree of roasting, and will not be able to give off its beneficial properties or aroma.

You can add carrots to the pan as soon as the onions begin to brown.

It is recommended to improve this type of frying by using additional products.

For example, bell peppers, garlic, cabbage or tomatoes will have a positive effect on taste and nutritional value.
