Ingredients

  • 5 medium carrots, peeled
  • 1/4 cup coconut oil
  • 2 teaspoons honey
  • 1/4 teaspoon togarashi or cayenne if desired (See Cook's Note)
  • Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
  • 1/8 cup chopped parsley

Method

  • Cut the carrots in thirds crosswise.
  • Then cut each piece lengthwise into halves or fourths, depending on the width of the carrots.
  • This should create spears that have at least one flat side.
  • Add the oil to a cast-iron skillet and heat over medium heat.
  • When the oil is hot, place the carrots in the oil cut-sides down and cook without turning until tender, about 6 minutes.
  • The cut sides will be very, very dark.
  • Some may even call it burnt.
  • Don't worry, it'll taste great!
  • Add the honey, togarashi and 1/4 cup of water to the skillet and stir up all the carrots.
  • Cook, stirring constantly, until most of the water has cooked off and the carrots are coated.
  • Season with salt and pepper.
  • Top with the chopped parsley.
  • (This will add a fresh flavor and it looks really pretty.)
  • Serve right away to your impressed and amazed friends!
