James Martin Glazed Carrots Recipes

GLAZED CARROTS

Steps:

• 1. Trim and wash the carrots, leaving a little of the green tops on so they look pretty.
• 2. Melt the butter and the dripping, if you've got it, in a large frying pan over a medium heat. Crush the unpeeled garlic cloves with the flat side of your knife, then add to the pan, turning after 1 minute. 3. Sprinkle in the thyme sprigs (they'll crackle a bit), squeeze in the clementine juice and add the honey, bay and a splash of water. 4. Add the carrots, sprinkle with a good pinch of sea salt and black pepper, then jiggle the pan to coat them in all that flavour. 5. Cover, reduce the heat to medium-low and cook for 10 to 15 minutes, or until the carrots are tender. 6. When the time's up, uncover the pan and, being very vigilant, simply reduce the moisture away until you get a beautiful clementine glaze and the carrots start to catch and caramelize in a lovely way, turning often. 7. Once you think they look great, simply serve straight away, or you can remove them from the heat and crack on with your other jobs, reheating them when needed. Delicious.

GLAZED CARROTS

Steps:

• Cut the carrots in thirds crosswise. Then cut each piece lengthwise into halves or fourths, depending on the width of the carrots. This should create spears that have at least one flat side.
• Add the oil to a cast-iron skillet and heat over medium heat. When the oil is hot, place the carrots in the oil cut-sides down and cook without turning until tender, about 6 minutes. The cut sides will be very, very dark. Some may even call it burnt. Don't worry, it'll taste great!
• Add the honey, togarashi and 1/4 cup of water to the skillet and stir up all the carrots. Cook, stirring constantly, until most of the water has cooked off and the carrots are coated. Season with salt and pepper. Top with the chopped parsley. (This will add a fresh flavor and it looks really pretty.)
• Serve right away to your impressed and amazed friends!
