How to Make Baby Carrots With Hazelnuts

  1. Wash and trim 1 pound of baby carrots.
  2. In a medium saucepan, bring 1/2 cup of water to a boil. Add the carrots, cover, and cook for 15-20 minutes, or until crisp-tender.
  3. Drain the carrots well, reserving 1/4 cup of the cooking liquid.
  4. While the carrots are cooking, toast 1/2 cup of hazelnuts in a dry skillet over medium heat for 5-7 minutes, or until fragrant and lightly browned. Let cool slightly, then roughly chop.
  5. In the same saucepan, melt 1 tablespoon of butter over medium heat. Add the reserved 1/4 cup of cooking liquid and stir.
  6. Add the cooked carrots and chopped hazelnuts to the saucepan. Toss gently to coat.
  7. Heat through for 1-2 minutes, until warmed through. Season with salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste.
