VEGAN CAROTTES GLACÉES

[Vegan Glazed Carrots]

...this is one of the easiest of Julia's recipes that I've tried so far...and just one pot...really...

...you're supposed to peel and cut carrots in 2 inch pieces...but I just used baby carrots instead...

...the recipe calls for brown stock...so I mixed up a packet of the brown stock my Mom sent a while back...Thanks Mom!...

...add a couple of tablespoons of turbinado sugar...and some pepper...

...a few tablespoons of Earth Balance...and you're done...

...and cook for a long time...30-40 minutes...until the carrots are tender and the liquid has reduced to a syrupy glaze...add a little bit of salt and pepper...

...roll the carrots gently in the syrup and turn onto a hot vegetable dish...

...these were really lovely...tender and sweet...delicious...and easy...

Substitutions:
Earth Balance for Butter
Vegan brown stock for stock

  1. Easy and yummy. I have been looking for a way to get Cordelia to try carrots (she shuns them now) and this may be the ticket.

  3. I've not had sweetened carrots with a savoury dish, so this recipe does interest me. and i bet my husband would love it.
