1 pound carrots (6 to 8 medium) roll cut (4 cups) 4 green onions, bias sliced into 1 inch pieces (2/3 cup) 2 tablespoons honey 2 tablespoons margarine or butter 1/8 teaspoon ground ginger pepper Directions: In a medium saucepan cook carrots, covered, in a small amount of boiling, lightly salted water 4 to 6 minutes or till nearly tender. Drain; remove from pan. For glaze, in the same saucepan combine the green onion, honey, margarine or butter, and ginger. Cook and stir over medium heat till combined. Stir in the carrots. Cook uncovered, about 2 minutes or till glazed, stirring frequently. Season to taste with pepper. To "roll-cut" carrots, hold a knife or cleaver at a 45 degree angle to the cutting surface to make the first cut, then give food a quarter to half turn before angle cutting again. Serves 4. |
