Carote Cotte, or “cooked carrots” in Italian, is a simple dish that highlights the natural sweetness and nutritional benefits of carrots. Typically prepared by boiling, steaming, or roasting, the dish is often enhanced with olive oil, fresh herbs like parsley, or a sprinkle of salt and pepper. Carote Cotte is a staple in Italian cuisine, valued for its versatility as a side dish or a light accompaniment to pasta and meat dishes. Rich in beta-carotene, carrots are an excellent source of vitamin A, which supports eye health and immune function. They also provide fiber, aiding digestion, and are low in calories, making them a healthy option for most diets. However, preparation methods like adding excessive butter or sugar can diminish their health benefits. This dish embodies the Mediterranean approach to cooking: simple, fresh, and health-conscious.
