Carrots and onions are versatile vegetables commonly used together in various cuisines worldwide, including soups, stews, stir-fries, and salads. Carrots are a rich source of beta-carotene, which the body converts to vitamin A, essential for eye health, immune function, and skin. They also provide fiber, vitamin K, potassium, and antioxidants. Onions, on the other hand, are low in calories and packed with nutrients like vitamin C, B vitamins, and beneficial plant compounds such as quercetin, which has anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties. Together, this duo adds natural sweetness, nutrients, and depth of flavor to dishes. Both are low in fat and cholesterol, making them a healthy addition to a balanced diet. However, preparation matters; frying or using rich sauces can increase calorie count. For the most nutritious benefit, enjoy them raw, roasted, or lightly sautéed.
