  3. Simmer 2 mins, then taste, add more sugar if necessary.
  4. Pour the dressing over the hot drained carrots.
  5. Cover and leave in the dressing to cool. (I preferred this dish hot).
  6. You can add green pepper, leeks or celery to the carrots about 2 mints before they are cooked to give constrasting colaours, textures and flavours.
