Simple and Sweet Sauteed Carrots with Thyme
Cooking doesn’t get much simpler than this, I tell ya. I make Simple and Sweet Sauteed Carrots for Thanksgiving and Christmas, and it goes down a treat. The secret to sweet carrots is cooking them nice and slow, on low heat, letting the juices melt out of the onions, garlic, and carrots. The dried thyme gives the dish a wonderful earthy flavor. Enjoy!

1. Rinse and dry the carrots and slice into matchsticks. Set aside.
2. In a large frying pan, fry the onion on medium heat for a minute, then add the garlic. Stir in the thyme, cover, and cook for a minute or two until soft.
