Directions:
- Peel carrots if you wish (I never both peeling mine) and either cut into matchstick shapes about 3cm-4cm (1 1/2 ) long and about 6mm (1/4 ) thick OR cut into rounds about 1/4 thick.
- Melt sugar and butter in a small-medium sized saucepan over a medium heat.
- Add carrots, salt and thyme and enough water to just cover the carrots.
- Bring to the boil and simmer for 10-15 minutes or until carrots are tender but not mushy.
- Remove carrots from liquid and set aside, leaving the liquid in the saucepan. (It doesn't matter at this stage if the carrots get cold as they'll be reheated later.).
- Now, turn up the heat and boil the liquid in the saucepan until it is reduced to about 6mm-12mm (1/4 -1/2 ) depth in the bottom of the pan. This may take 20-30 minutes.
- When the liquid in the pan is reduced and has a slightly sticky, 'thin honey-ish' consistency, return the carrots to the saucepan and stir gently to glaze all over and reheat.
- Serve as is, or sprinkled with chopped parsley.
