Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound carrots
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 2 tablespoons fresh dill
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
- 1 cup water
Instructions
Peel and slice the carrots into evenly sized rounds, about 1/4-inch thick, for even cooking.
In a medium-sized saucepan, add the water and a pinch of salt. Bring to a boil over medium heat.
Add the sliced carrots to the boiling water, reduce the heat to a simmer, and cover the saucepan with a lid.
Cook for 8-10 minutes or until the carrots are tender but still firm enough to hold their shape. Check with a fork for doneness.
Drain the water from the saucepan and return the carrots to the pan.
Add the butter to the hot carrots and stir gently until it melts and evenly coats them.
Sprinkle the fresh dill, salt, and black pepper over the carrots, and toss lightly to distribute the seasoning.
Transfer the dilled carrots to a serving dish and serve warm as a flavorful side dish.
