Maple-glazed carrots

Preparation time 10 minutes

Total time: 30 minutes

Ingredients

175 mL (¾ cup) vegetable broth
2 bunches of carrots with tops, peeled (about 20 carrots)
To taste, salt and pepper
15 mL (1 tbsp.) butter
30 mL (2 tbsp.) maple syrup
To taste, fresh chives, minced

Directions

Bring broth and carrots to a boil in a large, high-sided skillet over high heat. Season with pepper to taste. Reduce heat and simmer until carrots are tender and the liquid evaporated, 10 to 12 minutes.
Add the butter and maple syrup, stir, and cook until carrots are glazed, 7 or 8 minutes. Season with salt and pepper as needed.
Garnish with minced chives and serve.

Chef’s secret

If the carrots are big, cut them in half lengthwise so they cook evenly.
