Honey Ginger Carrots
These are an awesome spin on your typical carrots. I will explain two different ways you can cook them. Both were good. Very different from one another but both good.
1 pound carrots, sliced
1/4 cup butter
1 1/2 T honey
1/4 tsp ground ginger (recipe calls for 1 pinch but I liked more)
1 T lemon juice
Option 1 (following the recipe):
Cook carrots in boiling water until tender, but still firm, generally around five minutes. Drain.
While the carrots are cooking, in a large skillet, over low heat, melt butter with honey. Stir in ground ginger and lemon juice. Stir in carrots and simmer till heated through.
Option 2 (concept stolen from the Pioneer Woman):
Melt butter with honey. When about half melted, add carrots, ginger and lemon juice. Cook to reduce the butter mixture and brown the carrots. Serve immediately.
