How to Make Apple Carrot Onion Side Dish

  1. Melt 2 tablespoons of butter in a large skillet or wok over medium heat. Add a pinch of freshly grated nutmeg.
  2. Add 1 medium yellow onion, thinly sliced, to the skillet.
  3. Sauté for 2-3 minutes, or until the onion becomes translucent.
  4. Add 2 medium carrots, peeled and thinly sliced, and 2 medium apples (such as Honeycrisp or Fuji), peeled, cored, and diced, to the skillet.
  5. Carefully pour in 1/2 cup of water or chicken broth.
  6. Cover the skillet and reduce the heat to low-medium. Simmer for 10-15 minutes, or until the apples are tender and the carrots are cooked through. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.
  7. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Garnish with fresh parsley or chives (optional). Serve immediately alongside your favorite pork dish.
