Peel the carrots, rinse, dry and grate (carrots in the recipe can be replaced with pumpkin or zucchini, but in this case the vegetables will need to be grated, salt, wait 10 minutes, then squeeze them out). Grind the cheese in the same way. As soon as the potatoes are cooked, mash them, add milk and egg and stir (you can add your favorite spices if desired).
