Creamy Zucchini with Carrots

This seasonal vegetable food or garnish is absolutely delicious and its taste is enhanced by the sour cream. Try not to keep the zucchinis in the pan until they are soft. It's better to leave them a bit more tender and, by the time you serve them, they will be exactly as they should. Otherwise, you'll get a kind of zucchini porridge with carrots. The recipe is simple but pay attention to the small details that matter :)
