GLAZED CARROTS
Could these carrots be any easier? You could, of course, throw them in the oven, slathered with oil salt and pepper, or you try Pierre Franey's approach. Here, he slices them, adding salt, pepper, butter, cumin and scallions, and lets them simmer in water for about 10 minutes. With that, they're done, and ready to be paired with many a weeknight meal.
