Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Carrots with Orange Glaze.
Step 1
Start by filling a saucepan with lightly salted water and bringing it to a lively boil.
Step 2
Once the water is bubbling, toss in your sliced carrots and let them cook until they’re just tender, which should take about 15 minutes.
Step 3
After they’re done, drain the carrots and transfer them to a serving dish, keeping them warm and cozy while you prepare the sauce.
Step 4
In the same saucepan, combine sugar, cornstarch, salt, and ground ginger, whisking them together until they’re perfectly blended.
Step 5
Gradually pour in the fresh orange juice, stirring as you go, and then turn the heat to medium.
Step 6
Bring this delightful mixture to a gentle simmer, whisking constantly to ensure a smooth and thick sauce forms, which should take around 3 minutes.
Step 7
Once the sauce has thickened beautifully, stir in a pat of butter until it melts and becomes fully incorporated, adding a rich, velvety touch.
Step 8
Now, it’s time to bring it all together! Pour the luscious orange sauce over your warm carrots, tossing them gently to coat every piece evenly.
Step 9
Serve this vibrant dish immediately, and watch as your guests delight in the bright flavors and beautiful presentation.
