Ingredients
  

  • 1 pound carrots cut into 1-inch pieces
  • 1 ½ cups chicken or vegetable stock
  • 2 teaspoons curry powder
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ¼ teaspoon ground cardamom
  • ¼ teaspoon ground allspice
  • ½ stick butter
  • 1 tablespoon sugar coarse sugar works well here
  • Scallions or chives for garnish optional

Instructions
 

  • In a small saucepan, combine the carrots, stock, curry powder, salt, cardamom, and allspice. Cover the pot and bring the stock to a boil over medium-high heat. Boil the carrots covered for five minutes.
  • Remove the lid and continue to boil the carrots until the stock has all evaporated. Turn the heat off and stir the butter and sugar into the carrots.
  • Transfer the carrots in one layer to a baking sheet prepared with parchment paper or cooking spray. Preheat the broiler to high.
  • Right before serving, broil the carrots for 3-5 minutes until crispy on top – keep an eye on them! Garnish with something green if you’d like and serve immediately.
