These were really tasty carrots! The carrots made the milk slightly sweet and it tasted so creamy! Usually recipes warn you not to curdle the milk, but I think the effect on this recipe was appropriate. I used 2% milk and baby carrots, and added a couple of minutes to the cooking time. I recommend that you be diligent about mixing on a regular basis, particularly with baby carrots. The outcome was great! I served this as a side dish to a (sightly salty) tofu recipe so I was grateful that there was no extra salt in this recipe. Thanks so much! Great job.

Not so good. No flavor. Not worth the effort. Steamed carrots have more flavor.

This was a fine recipe. It was tasty and innovative, but I personally prefer steamed carrots with a little bit of butter. However, it was fun to try something foreign!

Looking at this I was trying to figure out what made the carrots so special. Even with my skim milk and light butter, these were so silky and decadent tasting. I bet the full fat versions are just out of this world. This recipe is just wonderful and a breeze to prepare.

When the carrots were almost done ,I added a little cornstarch mixed with cold water to thicken the leftover milk.Added 1/2 tsp salt and a dash of black pepper,made a nice sauce with the carrots and onions. The carrots were nice and sweet onions turned out to be pretty mild cooked in milk. Recommended way to cook carrots...
