Ingredients

4-6 large carrots, peeled and cut into matchsticks, i used pre cut up from produce
2 Tbsp olive oil, extra virgin
1 tsp salt
1/3 c water to cover slightly, may need a little more, not much though
2 Tbsp minced onion, i used green onion and some tops
1 tsp granulated sugar, i used brown sugar
1 Tbsp red wine vinegar, i used cranberry wine vinegar
1/4 tsp fresh ground black pepper, i used white pepper
2 Tbsp fresh mint leaves,minced, optional- i used

Steps:

1. Place the carrots, olive oil, 1/2 the salt and water in a large saucepan over high heat. Bring to a boil and cook until the water has evaporated, about 7 minutes- keep a watch on them so they don't scorch.
2. Stir in the onion and cook for 1 minute. Add the sugar and mix. Add the vinegar, pepper, and remaining salt and stir until there is a glaze coating the carrots, about 30 seconds. Remove from the heat and stir in the mint. Place in serving bowl.
