Cezerye is a semi-gelatinous traditional Turkish dessert made from caramelised carrots, shredded coconut, and roasted walnuts, hazelnuts, or pistachios. Cut into matchbox-sized rectangular chips and served on special occasions. It originated from Eastern Mediterranean Turkish province of Mersin. Grated carrots are boiled first and then roasted with sugar, coconut powder is spread on it, and pistachios, hazelnuts, peanuts or walnuts are put in it.
While variations on the treat exist which replace the carrot with fig or date purée, the name is nonetheless derived from the word "jazriyya," which is Arabic for "with carrot".
