Buttery caraway carrots recipe

Ingredients

  • 1kg carrot (about 8 medium-size)
  • 25g butter
  • 1 tsp caraway seed
  • small handful chopped parsley

Method

  • Peel the carrots and trim off the ends. Cut in half lengthways, then cut on the diagonal into slices about ½cm thick. Place the carrots in a steamer basket and steam for 5-7 mins until softened, or place in a heatproof bowl with a little water and microwave on High for 3-5 mins.

  • To finish the dish, gently heat the butter in a frying pan. Tip in the caraway seeds and cook for 30 secs until they start sizzling. Add the carrots and stir into the butter until glossy and heated through, about 3 mins. Toss through the parsley and serve.
