What better to go with perfect roast chicken than perfect carrots? Heston’s recipe features no water at all – the outer membrane of carrots is desperate to leach flavour so by keeping all the goodies in the pan you should have the fullest flavour carrots going.
Heston Blumenthal's perfect carrots
Servings 4
Ingredients
- 4 carrots
- 50 g Butter
Instructions
- Top and tail the carrots, and peel if you like. Slice vertically down the middle so you get long carrot pieces.
- Melt the butter gently in a pan and place the carrots in one layer. Cover and cook gently, with only the slightest sizzle.
- Cook for 45 minutes until knife tender, turning once during cooking. Season with salt and pepper.
