These carrots are cooked slowly on the hob in a skillet until perfectly caramelised.

Ingredients

  • olive oil: 3 tbsp olive oil
  • carrots: 6 carrots, peeled, cut into quarters lengthwise and then halved
  • honey: 2 tsp honey
  • orange: ½ orange, juice only
  • thyme: few thyme sprigs
  • black pepper: salt and freshly ground black pepper
  • parsley: finely chopped fresh flatleaf parsley, to garnish

Method

  1. Heat the oil in a large skillet over a medium–high heat. Add the carrots and shake the pan so they are almost all cut-side down. Cook for 5–7 minutes without stirring until golden brown. Add the honey, orange juice, thyme and 150–200ml/5–7fl oz water. Season with salt and pepper.

  2. Stir once and cook for about 3 minutes, until the water is evaporated and the carrots start to caramelise. Stir once or twice until caramelised then transfer to a serving dish. Sprinkle with the parsley and serve warm.
