What’s Cooking in Gail’s Kitchen? Simple Sensations: Glazed Carrots! My husband, Gerald, absolutely loves the texture of cooked carrots. He usually asks for more in every recipe. Unimpressed by their nutritional value, he could care less about the fiber content. Maybe it’s the bright orange color that echoed an enthusiastic response at the dinner table as a child. In any event, I know without a doubt, whenever I serve this appetizing choice of root vegetable, he knows it’s been a very special day.
GLAZED CARROTS
Ingredients:
16 ounces of fresh baby carrots, greens removed
2 tablespoons butter
1/3 cup light brown sugar, packed firmly
1 cup water
Dash of sea salt
Cracked pepper to taste
Directions:
In a medium saucepan, combine the whole baby carrots with remaining ingredients. Stir well to blend. Bring the mixture to a boil over high heat. Reduce heat to medium and continue boiling uncovered for 20-25 minutes. Carrots should be tender and liquid evaporated to leave a nice glaze coating.
These look soooo good! Would be amazing with some turkey and mashed potatoes π
