This seemed a good solid starting point recipe. I will at least double the spices next time (if not triple). Even DH, who is a spiceophobe found it extremely mild. That said, the timing for the carrots is on the button and delivers a perfect tender firm texture. If your making this for the family you might want to make this as written and then remove portions for the children and then add more spice for the adults if you wish after tasting.

Loved these quick and easy, lightly spiced carrots. I intended to use the optional red chili powder, but instead I grabbed cayenne powder. It worked out fine though, we love the added zing that it brought to the dish. Thank you for sharing this quick and delicious recipe.<br/>**Made for ZWT 8 India**

Would have never thought to combine all these flavors but it was great. I was lazy and just chopped my carrots into coins but it still tasted great!
