Preparation

Step 1

Cut off the greens of the carrots, leaving a half inch of stem.
Peel the carrots lightly, and wash them well.
Cut the large ones in half lengthwise, but leave small ones whole.
Put a pan with 1/2 inch of water in it over high heat.
Add the carrots, a small knob of butter per person, and salt to taste.
Cover the pan and cook until the carrots are just tender.
Remove the lid, lower the heat, add a small spoonful of honey, and cook until the water is mostly gone and the carrots are gilded with a shiny glaze of butter and honey.
Remove from the pan and serve right away.
If you like, strew some chopped chervil or dill on the top.
