Roasted carrots recipe
Ingredients:
- 1.3kg carrots
- 50g butter
- One tablespoon of maple syrup
- One rounded tablespoon of wholegrain mustard
Method:
Peel and cut the carrots into batons. This can be done up to 24 hours in advance and stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
Tip them into a pan, pour enough boiling water to just cover, and then bring to a boil. Pop the lid on and cook for 4-5 minutes, or until tender.
Meanwhile, put the butter and maple syrup in a small pan. Heat until the butter is melted, and then stir in the mustard.
Remove from the heat, and then drain the carrots, tipping them into a warmed serving dish.
Pour the warm maple glaze over the carrots, then taste and adjust the seasoning to suit.
This recipe doesn’t require oven roasting, which means it’s quick and simple.
