½ tsp brown sugar
1 minced red onion
1 clove garlic crushed
Olive oil
Dash of ground turmeric
Dash of ground cumin
3 tablespoons freshly chopped parsley
Juice of 1 lemon
Extra olive oil
Salt and freshly ground pepper
Directions
Wash, peel and cut the carrots into thin slices. Steam or cook in a little salted water until just tender. Drain and set aside.
Heat a little olive oil in a skillet and over low heat sauté the onion and garlic until soft. Add the turmeric, cumin, brown sugar, parsley and lemon. Add a little more olive oil if necessary. Mix through and pour over the carrots, season with salt and pepper and set aside for at least 1 hour for the flavors to blend. Serve.
Notes
Carrots can be a bit boring, but the dressing and spices in this recipe give a tangy flavor to the carrots. Great with any grilled meat.
