Ingredients
  

  • 1 pound Baby Carrots
  • ½ cup Butter
  • ¼ cup Brown Sugar
  • to taste Salt and Black Pepper
  • Parsley

Instructions
 

  • Place the carrots, brown sugar, and butter in a pan over medium heat. Stir them occasionally, ensuring they don't stick and burn.
  • Keep simmering until the liquid reduces into a glaze. As it thickens, check for texture. Season with salt and pepper to taste, adjusting to your preference.
  • Once the carrots are tender, they are ready to serve. Sprinkle chopped parsley over the top for an extra burst of color.
  • Enjoy immediately.

Notes

  • Use real butter for the best taste and texture.
  • If using whole carrots, slice them evenly for uniform cooking.
  • A non-stick pan helps prevent sticking and allows for easy cleanup.
  • Adjust sweetness by varying the amount of brown sugar used.
  • Fresh parsley adds brightness over dried herbs.
