Peggis Butter Fried Carrots Food

CARROT FRIES WITH KETCHUPY RANCH

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
• Trim the ends off the carrots and halve crosswise. Halve the carrots lengthwise, then cut lengthwise again in half or thirds, depending on the size, to create equal-size sticks.
• In a mixing bowl, toss together the carrots, olive oil, pepper, garlic powder, salt and thyme. Transfer to a baking sheet and spread into a single layer. Bake, flipping halfway through, until the carrots are cooked through and the edges begin to crisp, 18 to 20 minutes.
• Meanwhile, mix together the ketchup and ranch in a small bowl. Serve the carrot fries with the ketchupy ranch.

BUTTER-BRAISED CARROTS AND LEEKS

Steps:

• Trim the tops of the carrots. Scrub the carrots well but do not peel; halve lengthwise. Wash the chopped leeks thoroughly.
• Melt the butter in a wide pot over medium heat. Add the leeks and 1/4 teaspoon salt and toss to coat. Cover and cook, stirring occasionally, until almost tender, about 8 minutes. Add the carrots, lemon zest, nutmeg, 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1/4 teaspoon pepper and 1/2 cup water. Cover and continue cooking, stirring occasionally, until the carrots are tender, 15 to 20 more minutes.
• Add half of the herbs, the lemon juice, and salt and pepper to taste; toss. Transfer the vegetables to a platter and top with the remaining herbs.

AIR-FRIED CARROTS WITH BALSAMIC GLAZE

Steps:

• Brush an air fryer basket with olive oil.
• Whisk together 1 tablespoon olive oil, honey, salt, and pepper in a large bowl. Add carrots and toss to coat. Place carrots in the air fryer basket in a single layer, in batches, if needed.
• Cook in the air fryer at 390 degrees F (200 degrees C), stirring once, until tender, about 10 minutes. Transfer warm cooked carrots to a large bowl, add balsamic glaze and butter, and toss to coat. Sprinkle with chives and serve.

BUTTERED CARROTS

Steps:

• Place the carrots in a wide, shallow pan, add just enough water to cover them, then add the sugar and butter. Simmer over a medium heat until the liquid has evaporated and the carrots are cooked through - they should be glazed and shiny. Season and serve.

BUTTERED CARROTS

Steps:

• Trim and peel the carrots, and then cut them in half. Cut each half into long, thin matchsticks.
• Melt the butter over medium heat in a large skillet. Sprinkle in the sugar, and cook to melt. Add the carrots, and toss until they are coated. Cover carrot mixture, keeping lid slightly askew, and cook until the carrots are just tender, about 3 minutes.
• Season with salt and pepper, and toss to coat with melted butter and sugar. Serve immediately.

GARLICKY, BUTTERED CARROTS

Steps:

• Melt chicken fat in a large skillet over medium-high heat. (If using butter, melt until lightly foamy and starting to brown, 2 to 3 minutes.) Add olive oil and red-pepper flakes, if using, swirling to bloom a bit in the butter. Add carrots and season with salt and pepper. Cook, tossing occasionally, until carrots are just cooked through, 3 to 4 minutes. (They should be simply softened, like al dente pasta, not soft or mushy.)
• Remove pan from heat, and add garlic, tossing to coat, and transfer to serving bowl.
