Carrots are my husbands favourite vegetable and this is now his favourite treatment of them. I would give it a 5 if only for the ease and speed of preparation - that they taste awesome too makes this dish a winner! Made for Susie's World Tour

Quick, easy, tasty - my kind of side dish! I've never used orange zest in my glazed carrots and I think I would add more next time because I couldn't really taste it. I cooked the carrots for a total of 3-4 minutes and it was just right. Thanks Miami J!
