Ingredients

  • 2 lbs (1 kg) carrots, peeled, cut on the bias into sticks 1 / 4 inch (5 mm) thick (about 12 carrots)
  • 1 / 2 cup (125 ml) vegetable stock or chicken stock
  • 1 / 4 cup (60 mL) maple syrup
  • 1 tsp to tab (15 ml) butter
  • 2 tablespoons to tab (30 ml) chopped walnuts, toasted

Instructions

1. In a skillet or saucepan bring the vegetable broth, maple syrup, and butter to a boil.  Make sure you to stir well.  Cover, then reduce heat to medium and cook for 5 more minutes.

2. Uncover and increase the heat to high until boiling.  Stir occasionally for six minutes or until the carrots are tender and appear glazed.  The liquid will have mostly evaporated.  Sprinkle with walnuts and serve immediately.

To toast walnuts, spread them on a baking tray and bake in preheated 350 ° F (180 C) for about 5 minutes or until browned and fragrant.  Don’t burn them!

Enjoy.
