Number Of Ingredients 8

2 lb medium carrots (about 12)
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 tablespoons brown sugar
1/2 cup water

1/4 teaspoon cinnamon

Steps:

  • Quarter carrots lengthwise, then cut into 2 1/2-inch pieces.
  • Heat butter in a 12-inch heavy skillet over moderately high heat until foam subsides, then sauté carrots, uncovered, stirring occasionally, until slightly softened, about 5 minutes.
