Steps:

• Cut carrots into 1/8 in rounds or 1/4 in dice.

• Add, sugar and cook another minute.
• Add salt and 1/4 cup hot water, cover, reduce heat to medium low and let cook until carrots are done, checking and stirring occasionally. Add a little more water if necessary to prevent sticking. Dish should be almost dry when done.
• I usually cook for 10 minutes but cooking time can vary considerably due to age and sort of carrots as well as your your personal preference.
• When done serve sprinkled with a little parsley or chervil (which is nice with fish).

Steps:

• Trim the tops of the carrots. Scrub the carrots well but do not peel; halve lengthwise. Wash the chopped leeks thoroughly.
• Melt the butter in a wide pot over medium heat. Add the leeks and 1/4 teaspoon salt and toss to coat. Cover and cook, stirring occasionally, until almost tender, about 8 minutes. Add the carrots, lemon zest, nutmeg, 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1/4 teaspoon pepper and 1/2 cup water. Cover and continue cooking, stirring occasionally, until the carrots are tender, 15 to 20 more minutes.
• Add half of the herbs, the lemon juice, and salt and pepper to taste; toss. Transfer the vegetables to a platter and top with the remaining herbs.

Steps:

• Combine the carrots, chicken broth, and 1 tablespoon of butter. Simmer, covered, over medium heat until the carrots are tender and the liquid is cooked down. Add the remaining butter and brown sugar. Rotate the pan around to coat the carrots with the syrup.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 275 degrees F.
• Trim and scrub or peel the carrots and parsnips. If the parsnips are thick, slice them in half or quarters lengthwise so they are about the same width as the carrots.
• Place the carrots and parsnips in a pot or Dutch oven, such as Le Creuset, that's large enough for the vegetables to lie flat. Add the shallots, orange zest, 3/4 cup of the orange juice, the olive oil, thyme, red pepper flakes, 2 teaspoons salt, and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper.
• Place the pot on the stove and bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Cover tightly with a lid or heavy-duty foil. Transfer to the oven and cook for 1 1/2 hours, until the carrots and parsnips are very tender. Discard the thyme bundle. Sprinkle with the remaining 1/2 cup of orange juice and the parsley and season to taste. Serve hot, warm, or at room temperature.

Steps:

Steps:

• Core the cabbage and slice it into 2 inch squares. Thoroughly rinse the cabbage under running water, and then drain in a colander. Cook the bacon in a large pot over medium-high heat until it has rendered much of its fat and is lightly browned but still moist (do not drain the fat). Add the onion and a generous pinch of salt and pepper, and cook, stirring, for another 5 to 7 minutes, until the onion is softened. Add the cabbage, 1 cup water, and the Smash Seasoning to the pot. Bring the mixture to a boil, reduce the heat to low, then cover and braise for about 1 hour, stirring occasionally, until the cabbage is tender.

Uncover and continue cooking about 4 minutes until the potatoes are tender and the liquid has thickened enough to coat the vegetables.
• (If you need to, you can add more water or wine to coat the vegetables. **Also, I always grind up my rosemary into a powder because I don't like little twigs in my food! HA!).

Steps:

• Peel the carrots, wash them in cold water, and slice them into 3/8 inch disks. The thin tapered ends can be cut thicker. Choose a saute pan that can contain the carrot rounds spread in a single snug layer, without overlapping. Put in the carrots and butter, and enough water to come ¼ inch up the sides. If you do not have a single pan large enough, use two smaller ones, dividing the carrots and butter equally between them. Turn on the heat to medium. Do not cover the pan.
• Cook until the water has evaporated, then add salt and the ¼ teaspoon of sugar. Continue cooking, adding from 2 to 3 tablespoons water as needed. Your objective is to end up with well-browned, wrinkled carrot disks, concentrated in flavor and texture. It will take between 1 and 1½ hours, during which time you much watch them, even while you do other things in the kitchen. Stop adding water when they begin to reach the wrinkled, browned stage, because there must be no liquid left at the end. In 30 minutes or a little more, the carrots will become so reduced in bulk that, if you have been using two pans, you will be able to combine them in a single pan.
• When done - they should be very tender - add the grated Parmesan, turn the carrots over completely once or twice, transfer them to a warm platter, and serve at once.

Steps:

• Heat the vegetable stock, then tip the carrots into a deep frying pan. Add the butter, sugar, fennel seeds and the hot stock. Season to taste.
• Simmer, uncovered, over a medium heat for 25-30 mins or until the carrots are cooked through and the liquid is reduced and glossy.

Steps:

• 1. Peel the carrots and cut into 2cm rounds. Peel and halve the shallots. Cut the celery into 2cm baton lengths. Heat the olive oil in a large frying pan and add the butter.
• 2. Put the celery and shallots on a low heat and season with the sea salt and black pepper. Add the sprig of thyme. Fry gently until lightly golden brown. (Approx. 5mins)
• 3. Add the carrots and garlic and let them fry for 2-3mins turning all the time. Add the ale, tomato juice sugar, stock and parsley and let it reduce as it cooks.
