Time 40m

Number Of Ingredients 10

3 lbs carrots, sliced into matchsticks

1 1/4 cup vegetable broth
1/2 cup honey
1/4 cup sherry

  • Pour in liquid mixture, bring to a boil, season with salt and pepper. Throw in a bunch of fresh thyme sprigs (and I just leave them whole!) reduce heat and simmer, covered, for 10 minutes.
  • Uncover, and raise heat to medium-high, cooking for another 8-10 minutes, or until carrots are tender. Bring temperature to high heat if you find you still have a lot of liquid in your pan after 8 minutes. You still want some liquid, but not where it is soupy.

GLAZED CARROTS WITH THYME

Cooking carrots in a bit of water, butter, and sugar brings out their delicate flavor and coats them with a thin glaze. Instead of baby carrots, you can substitute medium carrots, cut into thin slices. Dill or parsley would work here as well.

GLAZED BABY CARROTS WITH THYME



Glazed Baby Carrots With Thyme image

This is adapted from one of Canadian LIving's Best Recipes Ever. It is a lot faster to make than some of the slow cooked glazed carrot recipes. We had these for dinner one night with rice, peas and sweet & sour ribs. They would be great to serve dinner guests. They will think you spent ages working on the dish, when in reality you only need to stir them several times near the end of cooking. If you have children who will look at the carrots & say "What are those funny leaves in there? I AM NOT EATING THAT" just leave the thyme out. You could use dried thyme leaves or ground thyme if you want to, just reduce the amount to about 1/2 tsp ground, or 3/4 - 1 tsp dried leaves. I think this would be great with some lemon thyme in the summer. If you use fresh thyme, garnish your serving dish with a whole sprig of thyme. I hope you enjoy them.

1kg carrots
25g butter
2 tbsp clear honey
5 lemon thyme sprigs, leaves picked, plus extra to serve (use ordinary thyme if you can't find lemon)

  • Tip the carrots into a wide shallow pan so they are no more than a double layer. Add the butter, honey and about 500ml or 2cm of water, the leaves from the thyme and a pinch of salt. Partly cover with a lid, turn the heat up high and boil everything down until the carrots are tender, cooked through and sticky with honey. If they aren't tender enough by the time the water has evaporated, add a splash more. Once glazed, turn them over in the sticky juices and serve, with extra thyme on top.
