I was looking for a new way to make carrots one night and came across a page from a magazine I had cut out years ago with this recipe. My son loved it! The dried plums - prunes :) - and orange juice gave a nice sweetness to this side dish. It's also fast and easy to make, which is a bonus on busy nights. Ingredients:
1 cup prune, snugly packed |
1 lb carrot |
1 cup orange juice |
1/2 cup water |
3 tablespoons butter |
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon |
1/4 teaspoon salt |
Directions:
1. Cut the prunes in half, and cut the carrots into 1/2-inch-thick slices. 2. In a 3-qt. saucepan, combine all ingredients. Heat to boiling on high. Reduce heat to medium; simmer, stirring occasionally, 15-20 minutes or until liquid evaporates and carrots are glazed. Serve at once. |
