1 1/2 lbs carrots
2 TBSP sugar
1/4 cup butter
2 1/2 cups water
1 tsp salt
chopped parsley
croutons
Peel carrots and cut into matchsticks, or buy them like this
at the store. Melt the sugar and butter in a saucepan. Add
carrots, water and salt. Bring to a boil and simmer for 15
minutes or until the carrots are cooked. Remove the carrots.
Boil the liquid until reduced to one third of original quantity.
Return the carrots to the pan and stir gently to glaze all over.
Serve sprinkled with coarsely chopped parsley and croutons.
