Delicious Carrots

My favorite way to make carrots now; I got the recipe from my mom, who made them at Christmas last year. They have a delicious flavor and aren't overly sweet. If you can't find the petite carrots, use regular carrots cut into matchsticks or baby carrots cut lengthwise into halves or quarters.

I cheated today bought some little carrots from the pre prepared section of the supermarket and these were machine scraped clean, so in the photo they look a little rough on the outside. However they taste lovely and I enjoyed these very much. DH liked them less, but carrots are not his most favourite of veggies. These were quick and easy to make and the nutmeg gives a lovely flavour that I especially liked. Please see my rating system: 4 stars for a recipe that I will be making again. Thanks!
