GLAZED CARROTS WITH ORANGE AND GINGER
When carrots are cooked, it's often a sad affair. They are boiled to death and presented almost as an apology. Yet when they're treated with the respect they deserve, even ordinary supermarket carrots can be among the most reliable and enjoyable of vegetables, especially from fall through spring. This braise-and-glaze technique can be varied at will and can also be used with other roots, like beets, turnips and radishes. Once you have the hang of the technique, changing the flavorings is a snap. Try substituting a mixture of half balsamic vinegar, half water or soy sauce similarly diluted for the orange juice, adding a few cloves of peeled garlic with the carrots. Or add a half cup or so of chopped onions, shallots, scallions or leeks, or of chopped pitted dates or raisins, dried currants or even dried tomatoes.

The easiest, yummiest carrots you will ever eat! The recipe is just so quick and easy to make. My husband grew up hating carrots, but he is willing to try anything.

STIR-FRIED BALSAMIC GINGER CARROTS
The carrots need to be cut as uniformly as possible so that all the vegetables cook in the same amount of time. If the carrots are skinny (about 1/2 to 3/4 inch in diameter), simply cut them into 2-inch pieces; if they're medium (about 1 inch in diameter), cut lengthwise in half before cutting into 2-inch pieces; if they're large (about 1 1/2 to 2 inches in diameter), quarter lengthwise before cutting into 2-inch pieces. Blanching the carrots reduces the amount of oil necessary to stir-fry. Mince the ginger by hand; if you use a grater or microplane, the ginger will be too wet and will spatter in the oil.

Steps:
- In a 3-quart saucepan, bring 1 1/2 quarts water to a boil over high heat. Add 1/2 teaspoon of the salt and the carrots and return to a full boil, about 5 minutes. Boil for 2 additional minutes. Drain the carrots in a colander, shaking well to remove excess water. Combine the vinegar, sherry and soy sauce in a cup. Combine the sugar, pepper and the remaining 3/4 teaspoon salt in a small dish.
- Heat a 14-inch flat-bottomed wok or a 12-inch skillet over high heat until a drop of water evaporates within a second or two when added to the pan. Swirl in the oil by adding it to the sides of the pan and swirling the pan, then add the ginger and stir-fry no more than 10 seconds, until the ginger is fragrant. Add the carrots and stir-fry for 1 minute, until the carrots are well coated in oil and ginger. Swirl the vinegar mixture into the wok, sprinkle with the sugar mixture, and stir-fry for 1 minute, until the carrots are crisp-tender. Immediately transfer to a serving bowl and sprinkle with chives.

ROASTED CHICKEN WITH STAR ANISE SAUCE, GINGER CARROTS AND SNAP PEAS
Provided by Whitney Chen
Time 3h
Yield 4 servings
Number Of Ingredients 23
Steps:
- For the chicken: Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
- Clean the chicken and sprinkle the entire bird, inside and out, with salt and pepper. Stuff the bird with the oranges, garlic, onions, celery, rosemary and thyme. Place the chicken on a rack in a roasting pan and bake for 20 minutes. If the chicken is browning too quickly, turn the oven down to 375 degrees F and cook until the internal temperature of the chicken is 165 degrees, about 1 hour 20 minutes.
- Remove the chicken from the oven, tent with foil and let rest 30 minutes. While the chicken is cooking, work on the garnishes.
- For the snow peas and carrots: Fill a large pot with water, season with salt and bring to a boil. Prepare an ice bath by placing ice cubes and water in a bowl. Set aside. Dump the snap peas into the boiling water and cook until al dente. Be sure to test the peas as they are cooking to prevent them from overcooking. Use a slotted spoon to remove the snow peas from the water and plunge into the ice bath. Remove from the ice when cool and reserve until service.
- Put the carrots, ginger, 1 teaspoon salt, 2 teaspoons butter and brown sugar in a saute pan and add water until the carrots are barely covered. The carrots should be in a single layer. Put on high heat and cook until all the water is nearly evaporated. Cover and set aside for service.
- For the star anise sauce: Combine the stock, soy sauce, anise seeds, honey, vinegar, sesame oil and thyme and reduce until the sauce coats the back of a spoon.
- Once the chicken has rested, carve the bird by removing the legs from the thighs and slicing the breasts in half. Pour any juices that have collected in the pan into the sauce and hold warm over low heat.
- To finish the snap peas, heat a saute pan over medium heat and add 1 tablespoon butter. Once it is bubbly, add the garlic and snap peas. Season with salt and pepper. To finish the carrots, gently reheat over medium heat and add the remaining 1 tablespoon butter to moisten.
- Once everything is hot, serve a piece of white and dark meat garnished with the carrots, snap peas and drizzled with the sauce.

Tips:
- Choose the right carrots: Select young, tender carrots for the best flavor and texture. Look for carrots that are smooth, brightly colored, and free of blemishes.
- Peel the carrots thinly: Use a vegetable peeler to remove the outer layer of the carrots. Peeling the carrots too thickly will result in a less flavorful dish.
- Cut the carrots into even-sized pieces: This will ensure that the carrots cook evenly. If the carrots are different sizes, some pieces may be overcooked while others are still undercooked.
- Use fresh ginger: Fresh ginger has a more intense flavor than ground ginger. If you don't have fresh ginger, you can use ground ginger, but you will need to use more of it to achieve the same flavor.
- Don't overcrowd the pan: When cooking the carrots, don't overcrowd the pan. This will prevent the carrots from cooking evenly. If necessary, cook the carrots in batches.
- Season to taste: Once the carrots are cooked, season them with salt and pepper to taste. You can also add other seasonings, such as garlic powder, onion powder, or cayenne pepper.
Conclusion:
Ginger carrots are a delicious and healthy side dish that can be enjoyed with a variety of meals. They are easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. With their sweet and savory flavor, ginger carrots are sure to be a hit with everyone at the table.
