SLOW-ROASTED CARROTS WITH BROWN-BUTTER VINAIGRETTE



Slow-Roasted Carrots With Brown-Butter Vinaigrette image

Elevating vegetables to star status is a better display of your culinary chops - and a more unconventional and surprising one - than showcasing a piece of meat. These are an adaptation of the "forgotten carrots" served by Neil Borthwick at Merchants Tavern in London; they actually do require a little bit of attention.

Time 1h30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 pounds large carrots
3 tablespoons olive oil
8 tablespoons (1 stick) unsalted butter,plus 3 extra tablespoons for roastingthe carrots
2 cardamom pods
2 star anise
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
3 tablespoons sherry vinegar
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
3 tablespoons chervil leaves orchopped fresh parsley

Steps:

  • Heat the oven to 325. Scrub the carrots, and peel them if you like (it really doesn't matter). Set a roasting pan over two burners on medium heat; put the olive oil in the pan. When the oil is hot, add the carrots and cook, turning as they brown, until lightly caramelized all over, 10 to 15 minutes.
  • Add 3 tablespoons butter, spices, salt and pepper. Transfer the roasting pan to the oven, and cook, shaking the pan once or twice, until the carrots are crinkly on the outside and you can pierce them easily with the tip of a sharp knife, 45 to 60 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, put 1 stick butter in a small saucepan over medium heat. Cook, stirring occasionally until the butter foam subsides and the butter turns nut brown, about 5 minutes. Turn off the heat.
  • Put brown butter, vinegar, Dijon, salt and pepper in a blender. Blend until a creamy emulsion forms, about 30 seconds; taste, and adjust the seasoning. Put the carrots on a platter, drizzle the vinaigrette over the top and garnish with the chervil or parsley, and serve.

SLOW COOKER BROWN BUTTER CARROTS



Slow Cooker Brown Butter Carrots image

This sweet tender glazed carrots recipe gets a boost from my favorite ingredient of all time: brown butter. An additional secret ingredient that you might not guess puts the flavor of these slow cooker carrots over the top! A perfect (and EASY) side dish for Thanksgiving or Christmas!

Provided by Karen

Categories     Side Dish

Time 3h10m

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 pounds carrots (peeled and cut into 1-2 inch chunks)
1/4 cup salted butter
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup brown sugar (or raw sugar)
1 bay leaves
1 teaspoon Nielsen-Massey Mexican Pure Vanilla Extract
parsley (fresh, chopped (to garnish) or sage)

Steps:

  • Peel and slice the carrots. I tend to like the thicker chunks of carrot, so don't go too crazy, just roughly chopped is fine. Set side.
  • In a small saucepan add the butter. Turn the heat to medium or just above medium. Stir occasionally until the butter starts to foam and ultimately turns brown. There will be silty brown "bits" that have separated from the yellow liquid. Immediately transfer the mixture to your slow cooker.
  • Add the salt, sugar, bay leaves, and vanilla and stir. Add the carrots and stir to coat.
  • Cook on high for about 3 hours or until tender.
  • Sprinkle with chopped parsley or sage.
  • The glaze is really great drizzled over mashed potatoes too...just sayin.

SLOW-BROWNED CARROTS WITH BUTTER



Slow-Browned Carrots With Butter image

This comes from The complete Italian Vegetarian cookbook and is so easy. The slow cooking of the carrots makes them incredibly sweet. The book suggest greated Parmigian-Reggiano cheese as an optional addtion add to the top after cooking. We have not tried using the cheese as these are so good as is.

Categories     Vegetable

Time 1h40m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 4

5 carrots (about 1 1/4 pounds)
3 tablespoons unsalted butter
salt
parmigiano-reggiano cheese (optional)

Steps:

  • Peel and cut the carrots on the bias into 1/4 inch thick ovals.
  • Place the carrots and butter in a large skillet. Turn the heat to medium-low and cook, stirring often, until the carrots shrink and start to brown, 1 1/4 to 1 1/2 hours.
  • Season with salt to tast, if using parmigiano-reggiano cheese sprinkle on top and serve immediately.

Tips:

  • Select the right carrots: Choose fresh, firm, and evenly-sized carrots for consistent cooking.
  • Wash and peel the carrots thoroughly: Scrub the carrots well to remove any dirt or debris, then peel them using a vegetable peeler or a sharp knife.
  • Cut the carrots into uniform pieces: Cut the carrots into even-sized pieces to ensure they cook evenly. Common cuts include rounds, sticks, or baby carrots.
  • Use unsalted butter: Unsalted butter provides a clean and neutral flavor, allowing the natural sweetness of the carrots to shine through.
  • Cook the carrots over medium-low heat: This low and slow cooking method allows the carrots to caramelize and develop a rich, nutty flavor.
  • Stir the carrots occasionally: Stirring prevents the carrots from sticking to the pan and promotes even browning.
  • Add water or broth as needed: If the carrots start to dry out, add a splash of water or broth to prevent burning.
  • Season the carrots to taste: Once the carrots are tender, season them with salt, pepper, and any other desired herbs or spices.
