To accompany the main dish, serve Sesame Carrot Slices shared by Jacqueline Thompson Graves of Cumming, Georgia. The sweet carrot coins are cooked on the stovetop until crisp-tender and are dressed up with a mild mixture of butter, brown sugar and sesame seeds. This carrot dish is a welcome change of pace, Jacqueline assures. It can be made more or less spicy, whichever your taste dictates, by altering the amount of hot pepper sauce, she adds. Ingredients:
3 cups sliced carrots |
2 tablespoons butter |
2 tablespoons brown sugar |
1 teaspoon ground mustard |
1/4 teaspoon salt |
dash to 1/8 teaspoon hot pepper sauce |
dash coarsely ground pepper |
1-1/2 teaspoons minced fresh parsley |
1 teaspoon sesame seeds, toasted |
Directions:
1. In a large skillet, cook and stir the carrots in butter over medium heat for 5 minutes. Stir in the brown sugar, mustard, salt, hot pepper sauce and pepper. Cook and stir 4 minutes longer or until carrots are crisp-tender and evenly coated. Sprinkle with parsley and sesame seeds. Yield: 4 servings. |
