Excellent recipe. I took out 4 tbsp of orange juice and added 4 tbsp brandy. Thie is a keeper Thanks Traci & Jeff UPDATE: Simple, quick and the glaze adds a bit of elegance to our friend the carrot. I served them with an asparagus casserole and plain rice with Shoarma beef stir fry.

This is a great recipe and very easy. It serves anywhere from 3 to 6 people, depending what other vegetable you may serve with them. Also depends on how many people really love carrots. Very east and tasty. Roberta

I think the next time - I will try it without the OJ. I had to add a little corn starch to thicken the glaze.

So simple and yet so good, for 3 of us used 1/2lb of carrots therefore scaling back other ingredients accordingly. I steamed my carrots for 10 minutes so they still had a good bit of crunch and then finishing their cooking in the glaze made them perfect and gave them a lovely flavour which we all enjoyed. Thank you Traci & Jeff Poole2, made for All You Can Cook Buffet.

Great recipe. I followed the advice of others and used just a couple splashes of orange juice. Nice flavor. Even my daughter liked it!
