Ingredients
  

  • 4 cups carrots peeled and sliced
  • 3 tablespoons butter
  • 2.5 tablespoons maple syrup
  • 2 tablespoons dill chopped, plus more for garnish
  • 0.75 teaspoons salt
  • 0.5 teaspoon black pepper

Equipment

  • Wooden Spoon

Method
 

  1. Place the sliced carrots in a large skillet and add just enough water to cover them.
  2. Boil water over medium heat, then simmer until evaporated and carrots are tender, about 7 to 10 minutes. Check for desired consistency by piercing the carrots with a fork.
  3. Add the butter, maple syrup, fresh dill, salt, and black pepper; stir to combine.
  4. Toss the carrots until they are evenly coated with the glaze, and serve immediately, garnished with extra dill.

Notes

  • Storage: Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for about three days.
  • Freezing: You can freeze cooked Dill Carrots; let them cool completely before storing in a freezer-safe bag for up to three months.
  • Pairing: These Dill Carrots are great with roasted meats, fish, or as part of a vegetarian platter.
  • Flavor Variations: For extra flavor, try adding a pinch of cayenne pepper or a splash of lemon juice to the glaze.
  • Serving Style: Serve warm, topped with crumbled feta or goat cheese for a delicious twist.
