Maple Glazed Orange Carrots Food

ORANGE MAPLE GLAZED CARROTS

Steps:

• Saute the carrots in butter with optional rosemary, almost to tender crisp in a medium saucepan with high sides and enough room to stir.
• Add the orange and maple flavors, along with cooked bacon and walnuts if using in sauce, add a bit of water if using brown sugar to help it melt. Stir to glaze carrots and reduce glaze over low heat until sticky and hot. Add the salt and adjust sweetness just before serving. The salt really brings out the flavor of the carrots, use less salt if adding bacon as a garnish.
• Garnish with fresh ground pepper, nuts and bacon if desired. The bacon and nuts are optional and can be added either to sauce while cooking or as a garnish.

Steps:

• Cut a 1-inch chunk off one end of a carrot at an angle. Roll the carrot a quarter turn and cut another 1-inch chunk at an angle. Continue rolling and cutting all of the carrots into 1-inch chunks. Combine the carrots and orange juice in a large saucepan. Add enough water to just cover the carrots. Add the butter and 1/4 teaspoon each salt and pepper.
• Bring to a boil, and then reduce the heat to maintain a steady simmer. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the carrots are tender and the liquid has reduced to a glaze, about 20 minutes. Top with the dill and serve.
