Carrots are one of those overlooked veggies that are so good and good for you, yet most of the time they kind of stay on the sidelines, like in chicken soup or coleslaw, or are eaten raw with a dip. However, something wonderful happens when carrots caramelize—the natural sugars emerge and what you get is a sweet, tasty and tender veggie, completely different than that woodsy crunch (though sometimes that crunch is exactly what you’re craving!). I personally am always on the lookout for new vegetable sides, as we all know how important veggies are, and how chock full they are of antioxidants, vitamins, and in carrots’ case, beta carotene, but we can’t live on sautéed zucchini and broccoli kugel! It’s so important to create new interesting veggie dishes to keep yourself and your family coming back for more.
Now, I know that some nutritionists and popular low-carb diets have given carrots a bad rap lately, due to the fact that carrots contain a bit more starch than other vegetables like lettuce or cauliflower. I say, that is just uncalled for! No one ever got fat from eating too may carrots, and nor will anyone gain weight from this recipe. We are talking about a natural, high in fiber, unprocessed, straight from the ground food item here, that has fantastic health benefits- anti cancer, anti heart problems, helps with digestion, helps your vision, and more. Enjoy your carrots conscience-free, and don’t miss out on this easy to use, family-friendly veggie!
6 very large carrots, julienned
2-4 tablespoons Bartenura Olive Oil
3 cubes Gefen Frozen Garlic
2-4 teaspoons agave syrup, Gefen Honey, or brown sugar (**may need more depending on sweetness of carrots)
salt, to taste
pepper, to taste
dried cilantro or parsley, sprinkled on for color!
Heat up two tablespoons oil in a large sauté pan, then add crushed garlic and stir for a few minutes until garlic turns golden. Add carrots to pan, stirring gently every few minutes until softened but not mushy.
Then add spices and agave, taste and adjust as necessary. Enjoy!
