Ingredients

  • 1 pound carrots, cut into chunks
  • Salt to taste
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • Chopped fresh parsley, chervil, or mint leaves for garnish, optional

Method

  • Put the carrots in a saucepan with a pinch of salt and water to cover them about halfway.
  • Add the butter, cover the pan, and turn the heat to medium-high.
  • Simmer until the carrots are nearly tender, about 20 minutes.
  • Uncover; much of the water will have evaporated.
  • Continue to cook until the carrots are shiny; if they threaten to burn, add a tablespoon or two of water.
  • When theyre done, taste and adjust seasoning if necessary; garnish if you like, and serve.
