The flavorings dress up an "ordinary" vegetable, and put some real zip in any meal! This is an easy, quick dish to make, and it adds a splash of color to your table.

The easiest, yummiest carrots you will ever eat! The recipe is just so quick and easy to make. My husband grew up hating carrots, but he is willing to try anything.

STIR-FRIED BALSAMIC GINGER CARROTS
The carrots need to be cut as uniformly as possible so that all the vegetables cook in the same amount of time. If the carrots are skinny (about 1/2 to 3/4 inch in diameter), simply cut them into 2-inch pieces; if they're medium (about 1 inch in diameter), cut lengthwise in half before cutting into 2-inch pieces; if they're large (about 1 1/2 to 2 inches in diameter), quarter lengthwise before cutting into 2-inch pieces. Blanching the carrots reduces the amount of oil necessary to stir-fry. Mince the ginger by hand; if you use a grater or microplane, the ginger will be too wet and will spatter in the oil.

Steps:
- In a 3-quart saucepan, bring 1 1/2 quarts water to a boil over high heat. Add 1/2 teaspoon of the salt and the carrots and return to a full boil, about 5 minutes. Boil for 2 additional minutes. Drain the carrots in a colander, shaking well to remove excess water. Combine the vinegar, sherry and soy sauce in a cup. Combine the sugar, pepper and the remaining 3/4 teaspoon salt in a small dish.
- Heat a 14-inch flat-bottomed wok or a 12-inch skillet over high heat until a drop of water evaporates within a second or two when added to the pan. Swirl in the oil by adding it to the sides of the pan and swirling the pan, then add the ginger and stir-fry no more than 10 seconds, until the ginger is fragrant. Add the carrots and stir-fry for 1 minute, until the carrots are well coated in oil and ginger. Swirl the vinegar mixture into the wok, sprinkle with the sugar mixture, and stir-fry for 1 minute, until the carrots are crisp-tender. Immediately transfer to a serving bowl and sprinkle with chives.

Steps:
- Halve carrot pieces lengthwise and cut crosswise into 1/8-inch-thick slices. In a heavy medium skillet heat oil over moderately high heat until hot but not smoking and stir-fry carrots until they begin to turn golden. Add garlic and stir-fry 30 seconds. Add water and butter and simmer, covered, until carrots are just tender, about 3 minutes. Boil carrots, uncovered, until most of liquid is evaporated. Stir in lemon juice and salt and pepper to taste.
Tips:
- Choose the right carrots: For the best stir-fry, use fresh, young carrots that are crisp and tender. Avoid carrots that are woody or have blemishes.
- Cut the carrots evenly: This will help them cook evenly. Aim for pieces that are about 2 inches long and 1/4 inch thick.
- Use a hot wok or skillet: This will help the carrots sear and develop a nice caramelized flavor.
- Don't overcrowd the pan: If you add too many carrots to the pan, they will steam instead of stir-fry.
- Stir-fry the carrots in batches if necessary: If you have a lot of carrots to cook, stir-fry them in batches so that they don't overcrowd the pan.
- Add the mango and ginger at the end: This will help them retain their flavor and texture.
- Season to taste: Add salt, pepper, and other seasonings to taste. You can also add a squeeze of lime juice or a drizzle of honey for a bit of extra flavor.
Conclusion:
Stir-fried carrots with mango and ginger is a quick, easy, and delicious side dish that can be enjoyed as part of a healthy meal. The carrots are tender and slightly caramelized, the mango adds a touch of sweetness, and the ginger provides a bit of spice. This dish is also a great way to get your daily dose of vegetables.
