Number Of Ingredients 8

5 medium carrots
2 tablespoons water
1 tablespoon sugar
1 teaspoon cornstarch
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon ginger
1/4 cup orange juice
2 tablespoons butter

Steps:

  • Slice carrots diagonally, about 1-inch thick. Place in covered 1 1/2-quart glass casserole with water. Cook on HIGH in microwave for 8 minutes. Stir halfway through cooking time. Drain. Meanwhile, combine sugar, cornstarch, salt and ginger in a small saucepan. Add orange juice; cook, stirring constantly until mixture thickens and bubbles. Boil 1 minute. Stir in butter. Pour over hot carrots, tossing to coat evenly. If you do not have a microwave, cook carrots covered in a small amount of boiling salted water until just tender, about 20 minutes. Drain. Even Easier: I also tried this with 2 cans of carrots. Microwave only 2 minutes to warm, then drain and add sauce. Beta carotene never tasted so good.
