900g baby carrots , washed and scrubbed

50g butter

25g piece ginger , peeled and finely grated

2 tbsp clear honey

Method

Bring a large pan of salted water to the boil and add the carrots. Simmer for 5 mins until slightly tender, then drain.

In a wide pan, heat the butter until melting, then add the carrots, ginger, honey and orange zest. Cook over a medium heat for 25-30 mins, turning them gently every now and then, until the carrots start to go golden and sticky.
