Glazed Carrots With Maple Syrup And Sesame Seeds Recipes

HONEY GLAZED SESAME CARROTS

Steps:

• Peel carrots. Slice carrots into coins, cutting any very large pieces in half.
• In a large skillet over medium heat, add olive oil. When hot, add carrots, salt and pepper. Cook for 5 to 7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until carrots are lightly browned and almost cooked through.
• Add honey and toasted sesame seeds to pan. Stir to coat carrots. Cook for an additional 2 minutes, or until sauce thickens slightly and carrots can be easily pierced through with a fork. Remove from heat and serve.

MAPLE GLAZED CARROTS

Steps:

• Place carrots into a pot and cover with salted water; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer until tender, 15 to 20 minutes. Drain and transfer carrots to a serving bowl.
• Melt butter in a saucepan over medium-low heat. Stir maple syrup into melted butter and cook until warmed, 1 to 2 more minutes. Pour butter-maple syrup over carrots and toss to coat; season with salt and pepper.

MAPLE GLAZED CARROTS

Steps:

• In a small saucepan, bring carrots and water to a boil. Reduce heat; cover and cook for 10 minutes or until tender. Drain. Stir in the butter, syrup and pecans until the butter is melted.

GLAZED CARROTS WITH TOASTED SESAME SEEDS

Steps:

• Prepare the carrots, onion, and garlic as indicated above.
• In a medium saute pan over medium to medium-high heat, saute onion and carrots in 1 Tbsp. of the olive oil for 3 minutes, or until softened. Do not brown. Add the garlic.
• When the onions start to sweat, add the carrots and stir. Add the orange juice and allow to simmer and lightly reduce with carrots/onion/garlic mixture. Add the carrot juice, and water if necessary, to ensure that the level of liquid is almost to the top of the vegetables. Return to a simmer. Lightly season with salt, pepper. Drizzle in honey, add butter, and simmer, uncovered, until carrots are tender and liquid has reduced to a sauce consistency, about 15 minutes.
• Remove garlic clove. Taste for seasoning and doneness; add splash of water and 1 Tbsp. olive oil and stir. Swirl carrots in the pan, and allow water to reduce. The final consistency should be thick and glossy, almost creamy, but not dry. Meanwhile, toast sesame seeds in a dry pan with a light drizzle of olive or sesame oil for about 5 minutes, flipping or stirring, until lightly toasted in color. Set aside. (This can be done in advance.) When the carrots have reduced fully, sprinkle the sesame seeds onto carrots and stir.
• Pour carrots into a serving bowl and enjoy.

GLAZED CARROTS WITH MAPLE SYRUP AND SESAME SEEDS

Steps:

• Put the carrots into a medium pan with half the butter or margarine (25 gr), and half the honey or maple syrup(1 tbsp), and a pinch of salt, then add the water.
• Bring to the boil, uncovered, and cook rapidly until the water has all but evaporated, and the carrots are tender, about 8 minutes.
• Add the remaining butter or margarine, and the rest of the honey or maple syrup, and cook until a thick syrup forms to coat the carrots, 3 - 4 minutes longer.
• Serve sprinkled with the sesame seeds.

MAPLE-MUSTARD GLAZED CARROTS

Steps:

• Peel and cut the carrots into batons. (You can do this up to 24 hours ahead and keep them in a polythene bag in the fridge.) Tip them into a pan, pour in enough boiling water just to cover, bring back to the boil, then put a lid on the pan and cook for 4-5 minutes until the carrots are just tender.
• Meanwhile, put the butter and maple syrup in a small pan. Heat until the butter is melted then stir in the mustard. Take off the heat. Drain the carrots and tip into a warmed serving dish.
• Pour the warm maple glaze over the carrots. Taste and adjust seasoning to suit.
