I served these delicious carrots with the Thanksgiving meal and everyone loved it. You can use baby carrots or spring carrots for this dish. I couldn’t find neither so used regular carrots and sliced them.

Serves : 4-6

Carrots : 450 grams

Butter :  3 tablespoons

Brown sugar : 1/2 cup packed

Chicken or vegetable broth : 1/2 cup

Salt and pepper to taste

Dry rosemary : 1/4 teaspoon

Fresh mint : 1 teaspoon chopped

Method:

Wash and slice the carrots.

Melt butter in a heavy bottomed pan over medium heat. Add carrots and cook for 3 minutes stirring occasionally.

Add the stock and sugar and stir. Cover the pan and reduce heat to low. Cook for another 5 minutes or until the carrots are tender.

Remove the carrots of the pan and keep them aside.

Cover the pan and continue cooking until the mixture is syrup consistency.

Add the carrots back to the pan along with the spices and stir carefully. Turn off the stove  and serve as a side dish with any meal.
