Great side dish with any meal, but really nice during the Holidays. Use a good maple syrup from the NE region of the US. This can be made ahead. From Bon Appetit. Ingredients:
4 lbs carrots, peeled, cut on sharp diagonal into 1/4-inch-thick ovals (about 11 cups) |
10 tablespoons unsalted butter (1 1/4 sticks) |
3 tablespoons sugar |
1 1/2 teaspoons coarse salt |
6 tablespoons pure maple syrup |
3 tablespoons dark brown sugar, packed |
2 tablespoons fresh italian parsley, chopped |
Directions:
1. Combine 4 1/2 cups water, carrots, 4 tablespoons butter, sugar, and coarse salt in heavy large pot. Bring to boil. Reduce heat; cover and simmer until carrots are just tender when pierced with knife, about 10 minutes. Drain. (Can be prepared 3 hours ahead. Let stand at room temperature.)
2. Melt remaining 6 tablespoons butter in large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add maple syrup and brown sugar and stir until sugar dissolves. Add carrots and cook until heated through, about 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
3. Transfer carrots to large bowl. Sprinkle with parsley and serve.
