This traditional Finnish dish has been a staple food for Will and me for a year; whenever I buy too many carrots and we have a lot of leftover rice, I make this simple and tasty dish.
First, mix together a cup of cooked rice, four cups of grated carrots, a Tablespoon of brown sugar, a Tablespoon of salt, two cups of milk, and two eggs. Pour this into a greased casserole dish, sprinkle a third of a cup of breadcrumbs on top, and place a divided Tablespoon of butter on top of the breadcrumbs. Bake this in a 375 degree oven for forty-five minutes. Serve piping hot.
Will and I love to make this; it's easy to assemble and doesn't take much effort to make. Tonight, Will decided it needed something as we were eating. To be honest, it is a Finnish recipe, which means it can be rather bland, so he was right that it needed something. He added some cinnamon, and it gave the needed pop that was missing. From now on, I will definitely add cinnamon to the recipe.
