Steps:
- Preheat oven to 300 degrees F (150 degrees C).
- Spread chopped hazelnuts in a single layer on a baking sheet. Bake in the preheated oven for 5 to 10 minutes, stirring once or twice, and watching very carefully as they will burn very easily. Remove from the oven when browned and fragrant.
- Cut baby carrots in half cross-wise. In a saucepan over medium heat, bring water, carrots, salt, and 1 tablespoon of butter. Bring to a boil, and reduce heat to low. Cover, and simmer very lightly for 10 to 15 minutes, or until tender but firm. Drain and set aside.
- Return pan to the stove over medium heat, and melt the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter. Cook shallots in the melted butter, stirring occasionally, until translucent. Add Marsala and sugar, and stir continually until sugar is completely dissolved. Continue simmering until sauce has thickened slightly.
- Once thickened, toss carrots and hazelnuts with the sauce until well coated. Garnish with parsley, if desired. Serve immediately.

CARROTS MARSALA
Steps:
- 1. Heat butter in a large skillet with tight fitting lid; Saute\' carrot slices until carrots are well coated with butter, 2 to 3 minutes.
- 2. Add Marsala and cover; Cook over medium to low heat until carrots are tender and liquid is reduced, 8 to 10 minutes. (If liquid reduces before carrots are tender, add 1 tablespoon chicken stock or water.)
- 3. Sprinkle with parsley before serving.
Tips:
- Choose the right carrots: Baby carrots are the best choice for this recipe, as they are tender and flavorful. If using regular carrots, peel and cut them into 2-inch pieces.
- Use a high-quality Marsala wine: A good Marsala wine will add a rich, nutty flavor to the dish. Look for a dry or semi-dry Marsala, such as a Marsala Superiore or Marsala Fine.
- Don't overcook the carrots: Carrots should be cooked until they are tender but still have a slight bite to them. Overcooked carrots will be mushy and bland.
- Use fresh herbs: Fresh herbs, such as thyme and parsley, will add a bright, flavorful touch to the dish.
- Serve the carrots warm: Carrots Marsala is best served warm, either as a side dish or main course.
Conclusion:
Carrots Marsala is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. The combination of sweet carrots, savory Marsala wine, and fresh herbs creates a flavorful and satisfying dish that is sure to please everyone at the table.
