Time 35m

Yield 2-4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 lb baby carrots (think 1-2 bites, leave the skinny parts whole, halve or quarter fat ones) or 1 lb carrot, peeled, washed, and sliced into sticks about the size of baby carrots (think 1-2 bites, leave the skinny parts whole, halve or quarter fat ones)
2 tablespoons butter
1 large garlic clove, peeled and quartered
2 tablespoons honey (use a little more for winter carrots or ones that have sat in the fridge a while, as they'll be more)

Steps:

  • Salt a large saucepan full of water and bring to a rapid boil. Add carrots and boil 5-7 minutes, until tender. Drain.

Tips:

  • Choose the freshest carrots and green beans. Look for bright, crisp vegetables without blemishes.
  • Trim the vegetables. Cut off the ends of the carrots and green beans, and remove any strings from the green beans.
  • Cook the vegetables until they are tender-crisp. This will take about 5 minutes for the carrots and 3 minutes for the green beans.
  • Make the honey glaze while the vegetables are cooking. This will give the glaze time to thicken and caramelize.
  • Toss the vegetables with the honey glaze. Do this while the vegetables are still hot so that the glaze can coat them evenly.
  • Serve the vegetables immediately. They are best enjoyed hot or warm.
