Preparation

Step 1

In a saucepan bring the water to a boil, add salt and carrots. Lower heat and simmer, uncovered, until tender but still crisp, about 8 minutes. Drain and return carrots to the saucepan.
Meanwhile, in another saucepan, melt the butter, add the honey, lime juice, lime rind, and ginger and slowly bring to a boil. Remove from heat.
Pour sauce over carrots. Warm over low heat, stirring constantly, until carrots are glazed, about 2 minutes.
Garnish with lime slices.
