Time P1D

Number Of Ingredients 8

6-8 carrots (peeled and sliced lengthwise into fourths.)
6 springs dill
1 garlic clove
3/4 cup water
3/4 cup vinegar
2 tsps sea salt
1 1/2 tsps cane sugar
pinch red pepper flakes optional

Steps:

  • After peeling and trimming the carrots to fit, pack them into a glass mason jar. I used a tall 750ml jar (which is about 25oz for my US friends, or you can divide them between two smaller jars).
  • I packed as many as I could (about 6) while still having room to add the whole clove of garlic and dill.
  • Add the rest of the ingredients into a saucepan and bring to a boil. Once the sugar and salt are dissolved, remove from heat and carefully pour into the jar.
  • Let cool to room temperature (about 30-40 minutes), put a lid on the jar and move to the refrigerator.

LAST MINUTE CARROTS

A very quick way of cooking carrots for when time is short! I have been using this recipe for 30years LOL. Edited to add: I now have a julienne peeler (like a potato peeler only it cuts nice slim sticks) and this recipe is ideal for cooking carrots shredded with it. :)
