You can also make carrot dogs if you are in a hurry. If you are in a hurry, you can always use Ikea veggie dogs instead of making them from scratch.

      hi Kim, the reason we have steamed these is to cook them (with the lentil flour that was added). You can also air fry them/bake them ,for that keep them in the fridge/freezer for couple of hours, it will help to retain their shape.
