  • Peel the carrots thinly: This will help the carrots cook evenly and absorb the flavors of the butter and dill.
  • Slice the carrots evenly: This will ensure that they cook at the same rate.
  • Use unsalted butter: This will allow you to control the amount of salt in the dish.
  • Fresh dill is best: If you don't have fresh dill, you can use dried dill, but the flavor will be less intense.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: Cook the carrots in batches if necessary to avoid overcrowding the pan. This will help them cook evenly.
  • Don't overcook the carrots: They should be tender but still slightly crisp.
  • Season to taste: Add salt, pepper, and additional dill to taste.
