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