Origin Honey Glazed Carrots

Glazed carrots have long been a classic side in Western cuisine, with variations seen across American, British, and European tables. The addition of honey brings natural sweetness and depth, making them a beloved comfort dish.

Ingredients

• 1 lb (450g) carrots, peeled and sliced (or use baby carrots)

• 2 tbsp butter

• 2 tbsp honey

• ½ tsp salt

• ¼ tsp black pepper

• ½ tsp fresh thyme or parsley (optional, for garnish)

Directions

• Bring a medium pot of salted water to a boil.
• Add carrots and cook for 5–7 minutes until just tender. Drain and set aside.
• In a large skillet, melt butter over medium heat. Stir in honey, salt, and pepper.
• Add the drained carrots and toss to coat in the glaze.
• Cook for another 3–4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until carrots are glossy and caramelized.
• Transfer to a serving dish and garnish with fresh herbs if desired.

Notes

• For deeper flavor, add a pinch of cinnamon or nutmeg to the glaze.
• Try roasting the carrots instead of boiling for extra caramelization.
• Use maple syrup as a delicious alternative to honey.
