Tips:
- Choose the right carrots: Look for baby carrots that are about 2-3 inches long and have a uniform thickness. Avoid carrots that are too thick or have blemishes.
- Prep the carrots: Peel the carrots and cut them into 1-inch pieces. You can also leave them whole if you prefer.
- Cook the carrots: There are two ways to cook the carrots for this recipe: boiling or roasting. To boil the carrots, simply place them in a pot of boiling water and cook for 5-7 minutes, or until tender. To roast the carrots, toss them with olive oil and salt and pepper, then roast at 400 degrees Fahrenheit for 20-25 minutes, or until tender and slightly browned.
- Make the glaze: While the carrots are cooking, make the glaze by combining brown sugar, Dijon mustard, butter, and water in a saucepan. Bring to a simmer over medium heat, stirring constantly. Cook for 5 minutes, or until the glaze has thickened.
- Glaze the carrots: Once the carrots are cooked, add them to the glaze and stir to coat. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, or until the carrots are evenly coated.
- Garnish and serve: Garnish the carrots with fresh parsley or chives, if desired. Serve immediately.
Conclusion:
Baby carrots with brown sugar and mustard is a simple yet delicious side dish that can be enjoyed with a variety of main courses. The sweetness of the brown sugar and the tanginess of the mustard complement each other perfectly, creating a glaze that is both flavorful and addictive. Plus, this dish is incredibly easy to make, making it a great option for busy weeknights.
