How to cook carrots in a pan with butter

Cooking carrots cooked in a pan is simple and just follow our steps to get a great side dish.

1. First wash the carrots and remove the outer skin with a knife or vegetable peeler. When you have cleaned them all, cut them into regular rounds , trying to give them all the same thickness. Be careful at this stage, because if you cut the carrots too thin, they'll lose consistency and you'll risk burning them, but on the contrary, a cut that's too thick would lengthen the cooking by a lot.

2. When you have cut them, heat a nice knob of butter in a pan with a clove of poached garlic . You can also add rosemary , which will flavor the butter and consequently the carrots.

3. When the butter has melted, dip the carrots and sauté them well. Be careful not to burn the butter and add more if needed. Add salt and pepper and cook for about 10 minutes.
4. Once you have obtained nice shiny and crunchy carrots, turn off the flame and serve immediately. Enjoy your meal!
