Ingredients
Honey 1 tbsp or 21g
Directions
- Peel carrots.
- Slice the carrots into 1/8 to 1/4-inch disks or diagonally. Try to cut the pieces so they are about the same size as each other, so they cook evenly.
- Melt the butter in a saute pan over medium-high heat, then add the carrots. Toss to combine and reduce the heat to medium. Sprinkle the salt over carrots and toss again. Saute for 3-4 minutes, then add the honey and pepper (if using) and toss to combine. Add the stock. Cover the pot and cook for another 3 minutes.
- Uncover the pot and increase heat to medium-high. Toss the carrots once or twice to keep them moving, and cook away most of the liquid. Turn off the heat and serve.
