Orange Sesame Carrots Food

ORANGE GLAZED CARROTS

Steps:

• Place carrots in a shallow saucepan, and cover with water. Boil until tender. Drain, and return carrots to pan.
• Pour orange juice over carrots, and mix well. Simmer over medium heat for about 5 minutes. Stir in brown sugar, butter, and salt. Heat until butter and sugar melt.

ORANGE-GLAZED CARROTS

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.

GLAZED ORANGE CARROTS

Steps:

• Trim the carrots and cook in boiling water for 4-6 mins until just tender, then drain. Melt the butter in a large frying pan, add the drained carrots, then fry over a high heat for 1 min. Pour over the orange juice and cook for a further 2-3 mins, bubbling the sauce and stirring to thoroughly coat the carrots. Finally, stir in the chopped parsley and serve.

ORANGE-HONEY GLAZED CARROTS

Steps:

• Cut the carrots diagonally in 1-inch-thick slices. You should have about 5 cups of carrots. Place 1/2 cup water, the butter, honey, 2 teaspoons of salt, and the ginger in a large saute pan and bring to a boil. Add the carrots, cover the pan, and simmer over medium-low heat for 5 minutes. Remove the lid and continue to cook for about 20 minutes, or until all the water has evaporated. You may want to raise the heat for the last 5 minutes.
• Add the orange zest and orange juice to the pan, tossing with the carrots. Simmer uncovered for about 5 minutes, until the carrots are al dente (tender but still resistant when you bite) and the sauce glazes the carrots. Add the pepper and another teaspoon of salt, to taste.

ORANGE SESAME CARROTS

Steps:

• Steam the peeled carrots for about 7-8 minutes until crisp-tender.
• Combine sesame seeds, orange juice, ginger, sesame oil and soy sauce.
• Toss with the carrots.
• Season with salt and pepper.
• Delicious.
