I scaled this back to 1 serve for me (I steamed the carrots for 10 minutes in the steamer) I had melted the butter and stirred in fresh sliciely sweet basil and then just before serving gave it a quick 10 second (750W microwave) to intensify the flavour and stirred the carrott into it and it was delcious with the fish, baked potatoe and steamed veg. Thank you lazyme.
