CARROTS IN RASPBERRY CHAMBORD SAUCE

Steps:

• Boil the carrots in water to cover with 1 tablespoon brown sugar and 1 tablespoon salt in a large pot until fork tender, about 10 minutes. Drain well.
• To prepare the sauce, drain the juice from the thawed raspberries into medium saucepan. Stir in cornstarch and heat over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the juice thickens. Stir in the Chambord and gently fold in the raspberries.
• When ready to serve, reheat the carrots by sauteing in butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat for about 2 minutes. Sprinkle with remaining 1/4 cup brown sugar, remaining 1 teaspoon salt, white pepper and lemon zest.
• When finished cooking, mound the carrots attractively on a platter, leaving a border around the edge. Spoon the bright red raspberry sauce into the border around the carrot mound and serve hot.

• Meanwhile, puree 1 cup of the raspberries in a blender and pass through a fine mesh strainer or a food mill. Discard the solids. Pour the puree into a small pot and add 1/2 teaspoon of the sugar. Add the reserved liquid from the carrots and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer until the mixture is reduced by half, about 4 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in the lemon juice.
• Now, place the remaining tablespoon of butter and teaspoon of sugar in a small skillet set over medium heat. Once the butter is melted, add the remaining 1/2 cup of raspberries and saute until the berries are just softened, about 30 seconds. Spoon the reduced sauce over the carrots, garnish with the sauteed berries, and serve.
