This burger sauce is zesty in flavor and works well as a fry dip or in sandwiches. The tangy sauce can be either spicy or softer for children.

Reviews
My whole family loved it!
This is really good. A solid 4, but a 5 after I thickened the sauce. Put 1/2 cup of OJ in a pan with 6 TB of brown sugar, and butter, and heat. Combine 1 TB corn starch with 1 TB water. Add that to the OJ mixture till thickened. Then pour it onto the carrots. Heat for about a minute to combine. Delicious.
easy and tasty. i added the juice of a whole orange but felt it needed a bit of acid still so i added a splash of apple cider vinegar and boom baam they are so tasty!
It was perfect, made no changes, family loved it.
Very easy to make
These are great without changing anything.
I didn’t have orange juice so I used coconut-pineapple juice and it was great. It might be interesting to try other juices too.
I like this very much, partly because it is so easy. My wife is Very fond of it. I add a bit of nutmeg and a few drops of orange extract.
Easy to make and my mom didn’t complain so approved!
Added dill & on second occasion ginger. Both compliment recipe.
Love this recipe! Make every Thanksgiving and Christmas. Simple enough to make any time
We loved these. My new favorite way of eating cooked carrots.
This dish was very good. My only addition was 1/4 tsp maple extract. Family loved it
Quick, easy and good. I almost always have these ingredients on hand so I am glad I tried the recipe.
Would cook them less before adding the butter and juice
fast and easy, I think I added more juice then it called for so we had plenty to put over the carrots and whatever else we had but it didn’t change the cooking time or anything. will make again.
Excellent. I used 1tsp cornstarch and added parsley and cinnamon.
Very good!
These carrots rock
Easy and delicious! Big hit with the qhole family even the ones that dont care for cooked carrots.
I made these carrots exactly as directed. There wasn’t much orange flavor. Next time I’ll add some orange zest for more depth of flavor. I would also add a bit more salt. Other than that, it was good. Will definitely make this again. It was quick and simple.
