Preparing carrot ketchup

1. To prepare this particular sauce, start by peeling the carrots , wash them and cut them into rounds . Boil the carrots in plenty of water until they become soft .
2. Place the vinegar and sugar in another saucepan, heat over low heat then add the blanched carrots.
3. Season with salt, paprika and cinnamon and continue cooking until the liquid has dried. Turn off the heat and let cool.
4. Transfer the now cold carrots into the blender, add the oil (about a spoonful) and blend until you obtain a creamy and smooth sauce . To make your sauce even tastier you can also add a teaspoon of worcestershire sauce.
5. Serve immediately with meat, fish or whatever you prefer!
