Braised carrots are a flavorful and nutritious side dish, often found in European cuisine, particularly French cooking. This dish combines tender carrots with a blend of butter, broth, and seasonings, slowly cooked until rich and caramelized. Some variations may include herbs like thyme or parsley and a hint of sweeteners like honey or sugar. Carrots are packed with vitamins such as beta-carotene, which converts to vitamin A, supporting vision and immune health. They also offer dietary fiber for digestion and potassium for heart health. However, the addition of butter and sweeteners can increase calories and fat content, so moderation is key. Braised carrots provide warmth, comfort, and balance to a meal, making them a versatile choice for both everyday dining and special occasions.
