Glazed (or
Candied) Carrots
(Makes 4-6 servings)
These are a staple in my house.
Ingredients:
water
1 lb carrots, cut into 2 inch
sticks or baby carrots (even better!)
1/2 teaspoon salt, divided
2 Tablespoons dairy-free
margarine
2 Tablespoons brown sugar
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1. In a medium saucepan over
medium heat, add carrots and just enough water to cover them with 1/4
tsp salt; bring to a boil.
2. Cover, then cook carrots
for 15 minutes or until the carrots are tender-crisp; drain well.
3. Return the carrots to the
saucepan.
4. Mix in the margarine,
sugar, 1/4 tsp salt, and nutmeg.
5. Return the mixture to the
heat and cook over low heat, stirring constantly, until the carrots are
glazed.
6. Transfer glazed carrots to
a warmed bowl and serve.
