I’ve made this twice — once following the recipe, and once cutting the carrots into thirds (they seemed to get a bit softer this way, but not mushy) and adding about 1tsp of ginger paste with the garlic. I preferred the taste of the second, but didn’t really taste the ginger as a separate flavor, though I do think it deepened the flavor of the carrots a bit.
4 Stars – garlic and honey are great, i doubled the course pepper
Delicious as written. Hubby loved them. Would definitely make again
It was dellicious!! I would definitely make again
My husband loves when I make this. I use a little more honey than it says. Definitely saute in the water longer than just 10-15 minutes, to make carrots softer.
very tasty
This recipe is delicious! The only thing I did differently was steaming the carrots(which eliminated the need for the water) before adding the glaze.
Cut recipe in half for just two people, used ingredients as suggested. I did keep the carrots covered to simmer longer on the stove top about 8 to 10 minutes instead of the 4 minutes in the recipe. Simple, sweet and delicious. Was perfect with a chicken breast. Thanks for the recipe!
Use thyme instead of garlic
I also made this by baking, on parchment paper. I did have to turn over to prevent over browning on the bottom. Next time I may try closer to the actual recipe, but use steamed carrots.
this was awesome! Only I baked it without any water. I just sprayed a casserole dish and added a little butter along with all the other ingredients. Delicious!
Yummy! I boiled the carrots in the microwave to save time and added a teaspoon of orange marmalade. Gramma says they are her new fav.
These are amazing.
Great side dish that very easy to throw together! I cut the recipe in half and saved on time by using a steam in bag of baby carrots. This eliminated the water and all I did was combine the rest of the ingredients and poured over the carrots, tossing them to coat.
As this recipe is, I don’t think it is for me. The honey and the sweetness of the carrots for me was very sweet. I added some Cajun seasoning to it to counter balance the sweetness and then I did like it
