Minted Glazed Carrots image

Found on bunch carrots from Siri Produce Inc. in Oregon. DON'T use those awful "baby carrots" from the grocery store. Whole carrots (small-medium sized) and organic are best. If the carrots are small leave whole but if they are medium-sized cut in half lengthwise. If your carrots are good quality they don't need to be peeled. Recipe adapted slightly.

Time 20m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

2 bunches whole carrots, tops removed
1/4 lb butter (1/2 cup butter although I used only 1/3 cup)
2 tablespoons sugar (unbleached or raw)
1 tablespoon of fresh mint, chiffonade (*FRESH* mint only!)
salt and black pepper, to taste

Steps:

  • Lightly steam the carrots in a steamer basket. Drain.
  • Wash out the pot, dry it with a towel then heat the pan on medium heat.
  • Add the butter and sugar until butter is melted and sugar has dissolved.
  • Add the carrots to the pan and cook until butter starts to brown, the carrots have a nutty fragrance and are fork tender.
  • Arrange the carrots on a serving platter.
  • Season with salt (we liked it with French grey sea salt) and cracked black pepper. Garnish with the mint. Serve immediately.

I didn't have any fresh mint, so I used dried mint instead. It still tasted great.
