Maple Glazed Carrots

From http://inthekitchenwithkath.com

(Serves 2, multiplies easily)

½ – ¾ pound carrots

About 2 teaspoons butter

About 2 teaspoons pure maple syrup

1. Wash and peel the carrots. Cut them diagonally into bite-sized pieces.

2. Put the carrots in a pan and fill it with water until they are almost covered. Add the butter.

3. Heat, uncovered, over medium-high heat until the water is boiling. Reduce the heat so the water is simmering and continue to cook the carrots uncovered. The idea is to have the water evaporate; if it all evaporates before the carrots a done, add a bit more water.

4. When the carrots are just about done, add the maple syrup and stir.

5. Cook until the carrots are done, the water has evaporated, and the carrots have a nice glaze.
