Caramelised Carrots Recipes

Steps:

• Put the carrots in a large frying pan with a lid. Cover with cold water, put the lid on and bring to a boil. Once boiling, take the lid off and cook over a medium heat for about 25-30 mins until all the water has evaporated.
• Reduce the heat, add the honey, butter and thyme leaves and gently cook for about 5 mins until the carrots are caramelised and golden.

Steps:

• Heat the oil and butter in a frying pan. Add the carrots and cook, covered, over a low heat, until the carrots have just tendered.
• Add the sugar, stir constantly, about 10 minutes, or until the carrots caramelise.
• Stir in the parsley and the vinegar.

Steps:

• Heat olive oil in large skillet, then add carrots, cut side down.
• Sprinkle with salt and cook, covered, for 10 minutes.
• Turn carrots, add garlic, cover and continue cooking for 10 minutes, or until tender and golden brown.
• Remove carrots to serving plate and cover to keep warm.
• Add whipping cream and cayenne pepper to the same skillet and bring to a boil.
• Reduce heat and gently boil for 2 to 4 minutes, until cream is slightly thickened.
• Pour over carrots and serve immediately.

Steps:

• Add the carrots to an 8-inch square baking dish in an even layer. Combine the salt, brown sugar, rosemary and thyme in a bowl until combined, then spread over the carrots. Allow these to sit in the refrigerator for 10 to 12 hours.
• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Remove the carrots from the sugar-salt mixture and add to a 9-inch oval enameled baking dish. Drizzle with olive oil and toss to combine. Roast until golden brown, about 20 minutes.
• Meanwhile, make the crema: To a medium, high-sided saute pan over medium heat add the oil and heat until hot. Add the shallots and allow to caramelize, about 5 minutes. Add the walnuts and toss to combine. Add enough water to cover the bottom the pan, about 1 cup, and bring to a simmer. Turn off the heat and pour the mixture into a food processor. Turn on the machine and stream in the olive oil. Taste and adjust the seasoning with salt as needed. Set aside until ready to serve.
• Spoon the crema on the bottom of a large serving platter. Top with the roasted carrots and shaved pecorino.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Tip the carrots, honey, butter and 150ml water into a deep roasting tin and season well. Bake in the oven for 1 hr-1 hr 10 mins or until tender and sticky. Scatter over the chives and serve.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 180°C Line 2 large, 2cm-deep oven trays with foil.
• Using a processor or mandolin, finely shred carrots. Place in a bowl. Add onion, oil, sugar, chilli and nutmeg. Season with salt and pepper. Mix until well combined.
• Divide carrot mixture between prepared trays. Roast for 1 hour, swapping trays over in the oven after 30 minutes, or until crisp and golden. Allow to cool slightly. Using tongs, tear carrot mixture into pieces. Serve.

Steps:

• Blanch carrots in a pan of boiling salted water for 3 mins, drain well, then pat dry. In a large pan, melt the butter and oil, then fry the carrots, onions and thyme over a low heat for 30 mins until golden.
• Stir in the sugar and red wine and bubble for a few mins to boil off the alcohol. Add the vinegar, then continue to cook until syrupy, about 5 mins. Remove the sprigs of thyme and serve. Make up to 2 days ahead, stored in a covered container. Tip back into a pan and reheat or use a microwave.

Steps:

• Grease the bottom and sides of a covered casserole dish with 1 tablespoon of butter and set aside.
• Melt the other tablespoon of butter in a skillet and slowly cook the onions, stirring occasionally, until golden brown and tender.
• Preheat oven to 180C/350°F.
• While the onions cook, peel and THINLY slice the carrots and put them into the buttered casserole dish. The slices should be about the thickness of a nickel (or a pound coin in the UK). If they are too thick, they will take longer than noted to cook.
• When the onions are cooked, add them to the carrots and mix them around a bit.
• In a small bowl, combine the orange juice, honey, paprika, garlic powder, dill, cayenne (if using), melted butter, salt and pepper.
• Pour this mixture over the carrots, cover and bake for one hour. Remove from oven and test to see that carrots are firm but tender. If need be, return to oven and cook an additional 5-15 minutes.
• Enjoy now because I can almost guarantee that you won't have any leftovers!

• Preheat oven to 375°F. Whisk 1/4 cup water, pomegranate molasses, and next 7 ingredients in large bowl to blend. Add carrots to pomegranate mixture and toss to coat.
