Maple-Glazed Carrots

THis one is a favorite around my house.  A trick I learned to enhance the presentation is to use a roll cut. Cut the carrot crosswise on the diagonal.  Roll the carrot 180 degrees, move the knife 1 inch up the carrot and cut again on the diagonal. Repeat.  

Maple-Glazed Carrots

2 pounds carrots, peeled and trimmed
3 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 tablespoons pure maple syrup
1 teaspoon salt

Cut the carrots using a roll cut.

Put the carrots in a saucepan and add just enough water to cover.  Add the butter, maple syrup, and salt. Bring to a boil over high heat. reduce the heat to medium and cover, shaking the pan occasionally.  Cook at a steady boil until the carrots are tender but not soft.

Uncover the pan and raise the heat to high and rapidly boil off the water so that you are left with a syrup.  Shake the pan so that the carrots are evenly covered with the syrup.  Serve.

Serves 4
