GLAZED CARROTS WITH ORANGE AND GINGER



Glazed Carrots With Orange and Ginger image

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.

GINGER GLAZED CARROTS



Ginger Glazed Carrots image

This makes a great vegetable side dish for any Asian marinated meat dishes.

Provided by Amy H.

Categories     Vegetables

Time 20m

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 Tbsp peanut oil
2 c carrots, scraped and diagonally sliced
1 medium onion, quartered
1 c pineapple tidbits, drained (reserve juice)
2 tsp fresh ginger root, minced
2 Tbsp brown sugar
1/4 c soy sauce
1/4 c reserved pineapple juice
1/4 tsp garlic powder
1/2 tsp oriental 5 spice blend
1 Tbsp cornstarch, mixed with 2 tbsp. cold water

Steps:

  • 1. Meanwhile, heat onions in 2 Tbsp. peanut oil in wok or frying pan for 2 minutes. Add ginger. Continue to saute until onions are soft.
  • 2. Add pineapple tidbits. Saute until onions are beginning to caramelize and pineapple starts to brown.
  • 3. Add carrots and soy sauce, pineapple juice, garlic powder and 5 spice blend. Heat 1 minute. Make a well in center of stir-fry. Add cornstarch mixture. Stir until thickened. Remove from heat. Toss lightly to completely coat.

Tips:

  • Choose the right carrots: Look for young, tender carrots that are about 2 inches long. Avoid thick or woody carrots, as they will take longer to cook and may not be as flavorful.
  • Peel the carrots: Peeling the carrots is optional, but it will help them cook more evenly and will also make them easier to glaze.
  • Cut the carrots into even-sized pieces: This will help them cook evenly. If you are using baby carrots, you can leave them whole.
  • Use a large skillet or sauté pan: This will give the carrots plenty of room to cook and will help them brown evenly.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: If you overcrowd the pan, the carrots will steam instead of brown. Cook the carrots in batches if necessary.
  • Cook the carrots over medium-high heat: This will help them brown quickly and evenly.
  • Stir the carrots frequently: This will help them cook evenly and prevent them from burning.
  • Add the glaze: Once the carrots are browned, add the glaze and cook for a few minutes more, or until the carrots are coated and heated through.
  • Serve immediately: Glazed carrots are best served hot. They can be served as a side dish or as an appetizer.

Conclusion:

Glazed carrots are a delicious and easy side dish that can be made with just a few simple ingredients. They are perfect for a weeknight meal or a special occasion. The glaze adds a sweet and tangy flavor to the carrots, and the carrots themselves are tender and flavorful. Glazed carrots can be served hot or cold, and they are also a great addition to salads and other dishes.
