Tender rounds of carrot cooked in a buttery glaze of honey and brown sugar until glossy and caramelised, finished with fresh parsley. A simple, versatile side dish that works equally well alongside a Sunday roast or a midweek supper. The glaze clings to each piece, giving a sweet, lightly sticky coating with a gentle savoury edge from black pepper.
