INGREDIENTS

1½ lb carrots (about 7–8 medium) peeled and sliced ¼-inch thick on the diagonal 1½ Tbsp pure maple syrup 2 tsp grainy Dijon mustard ½ tsp salt ¼ tsp pepper 1 Tbsp butter 1 Tbsp chopped fresh dill

RECIPE

  1. Place the carrots, maple syrup, mustard, salt, and pepper in a medium saucepan with ¾ cup of water. Stir well. Bring the carrots to a boil over high heat, uncovered. Turn down the heat to medium, cover, and simmer the carrots until they’re almost tender, but not quite, about 5–6 minutes.
  2. Remove the lid and continue to simmer the carrots until almost all of the liquid has disappeared, about 8 minutes. Stir in the butter and dill. Season to taste with more salt and pepper, if you like.
