Time 15m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 pound carrots, trimmed and scraped
2 ribs celery
1/2 cup water
Salt to taste if desired
2 tablespoons butter
1/4 teaspoon ground cumin

Steps:

  • Cut the carrots crosswise into very thin slices. There should be about 3 1/2 cups.
  • Cut away the tender top leaves of the celery and chop them. Set aside.
  • Scrape the outside of the celery ribs, using a swivel-bladed vegetable scraper. Cut the celery lengthwise into very thin strips. Cut the strips into very small cubes. There should be about 1/2 cup.
  • Put the carrot rounds into a saucepan and add the water. Bring to a boil and cover tightly. Cook 5 minutes until most of the water has evaporated. Add salt, the butter, cumin and celery cubes. Stir and cover. Cook about 1 minute and remove from the heat.
  • Sprinkle the carrots with the chopped celery leaves and stir briefly. Serve.
