When it comes to side dishes with vegetables, I’m a purist! I prefer steaming over boiling so I can enjoy their natural flavor. Like anything else, I detest monotony so I like to break the routine and instead of steaming, I add different ingredients and cook my vegetables once in a while…
As I mentioned in previous blogs, when I was growing up, my parents had a Garden and one of the vegetables they were growing was carrots. I used to pull one out of the ground, clean it up and eat it. It couldn’t get any fresher than that! Perhaps that’s where the “purist” attitude comes from…
Anyway, among many of my side dish recipes – the” un-steamed” ones, there are a few I like serving on special occasions like Roasted Rainbow Carrots, Carrot & Rutabaga Mash, and many more including this one… Grand Marnier Glazed Carrots! The sweetness that we get from the carrots is slightly intensified by the added liqueur. To prevent this side dish from being too sweet, I also add a little zip to it…
I like to serve this dish with Pork Roast or Roast Beef, my Brown Sugar Mustard Glazed Ham, as well as with a nice Grilled Chicken. Another meal that this Grand Marnier Glazed Carrots recipe goes well with is my Holiday Turkey on Thanksgiving or Christmas… yummy! If you’re going to serve this side dish to children, you can always substitute freshly squeezed orange juice for the Grand Marnier.
