Yields
2 servings
Ingredients
6 large carrots, peeled and cut in half, then into vertical strips
1 Tbsp coconut oil
1/8 tsp paprika
1/8 tsp cinnamon
1/8 tsp cumin
1/8 tsp ginger
1/8 tsp nutmeg
1/8 tsp cayenne pepper
1/4 tsp ground dried sage
1/4 tsp thyme (fresh or dried)
2 Tbsp water
1 Tbsp honey* - see note below
salt, to taste
Directions
In large saute pan over medium-high heat, melt coconut oil. Add carrots, spices, and salt, then toss in coconut oil to coat. Saute, uncovered, for approx. 5 minutes to slightly caramelize the carrots (they will still be a bit firm).
Add 2 Tbsp water to pan, then cover, and turn down heat to medium-low so that they simmer to cook through and soften, approx. 5 minutes.
Once softened, uncover, and add honey. Cook for about 1 more minute, just to coat the carrots in honey. Remove from heat, and serve!
Notes
*Can substitute pure maple syrup for honey
