1 pound carrots
1 cup fresh orange juice
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 tablespoon picked fresh dill leaves

Time 45m

Yield 4 to 5 minutes

3 bunches carrots, peeled
2 tablespoons unsalted butter

Kosher salt
1 teaspoon minced fresh ginger

GLAZED CARROTS WITH ORANGE AND GINGER



Glazed Carrots With Orange and Ginger image

When carrots are cooked, it's often a sad affair. They are boiled to death and presented almost as an apology. Yet when they're treated with the respect they deserve, even ordinary supermarket carrots can be among the most reliable and enjoyable of vegetables, especially from fall through spring. This braise-and-glaze technique can be varied at will and can also be used with other roots, like beets, turnips and radishes. Once you have the hang of the technique, changing the flavorings is a snap. Try substituting a mixture of half balsamic vinegar, half water or soy sauce similarly diluted for the orange juice, adding a few cloves of peeled garlic with the carrots. Or add a half cup or so of chopped onions, shallots, scallions or leeks, or of chopped pitted dates or raisins, dried currants or even dried tomatoes.

Categories     easy, quick, side dish

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 pound carrots, trimmed and peeled if necessary, cut into 1/4-inch coins or sticks
2 tablespoons butter or extra virgin olive oil
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 tablespoon minced or grated peeled fresh ginger
1/3 cup freshly squeezed orange juice
1 teaspoon freshly squeezed lemon juice
Chopped fresh parsley, dill, mint, basil or chervil leaves for garnish (optional)

Steps:

  • Combine all ingredients except lemon juice and garnish in a saucepan no more than 6 inches across. Bring mixture to a boil, stirring to coat, then adjust heat so mixture simmers. Cover.
  • Cook, more or less undisturbed, until carrots are tender and liquid is almost gone, 10 to 20 minutes. Uncover and boil off remaining liquid, then add lemon juice. Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary. Serve hot or within an hour or two, garnished with herbs, if you like.

2 tablespoons butter
Coarse salt

Nutrition Facts : Calories 122 g, Fat 6 g, Fiber 4 g, Protein 2 g

Tips:

  • For the best flavor, use fresh carrots. If using baby carrots, trim the ends and leave them whole. For larger carrots, peel and cut them into 2-inch pieces.
  • To make sure the carrots are evenly glazed, toss them with the orange juice, olive oil, and honey before roasting. You can also add a touch of salt and pepper to taste.
  • Roast the carrots in a single layer on a baking sheet. This will help them to cook evenly and prevent them from steaming.
  • Roast the carrots until they are tender-crisp, about 20-25 minutes. You can test them by piercing them with a fork. If they are tender, they are done.
  • Remove the carrots from the oven and let them cool slightly before serving. Garnish with fresh mint leaves for a pop of color and flavor.

Conclusion:

Orange glazed carrots with mint is a delicious and easy side dish that is perfect for any occasion. The sweet and savory glaze, combined with the fresh mint, creates a flavor combination that is both refreshing and satisfying. These carrots are sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
