Glazed Parsley Carrots image

This is a French classic, carrots Vichy, or glazed carrots. The idea is simply to cook the carrots with some sugar, water, lemon juice and butter until they are tender and glazed with the melted sugar. Care must be taken to avoid overcooking and burning the sugar mixture.
