Ingredients
- 500 grams carrots
- 2 tablespoons vegan butter
- 1 teaspoon cumin seeds
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley
- 50 milliliters water
Directions
Step 1
Wash and peel the carrots, then cut them into even-sized slices or sticks, about 1/4 inch thick.
Step 2
In a large skillet or sauté pan, melt the vegan butter over medium heat.
Step 3
Once the butter has melted and is slightly bubbling, add the cumin seeds. Stir and toast them for 1-2 minutes, until they are fragrant.
Step 4
Add the sliced carrots to the skillet and toss to coat them in the butter and cumin seeds.
Step 5
Pour in the water, cover the skillet with a lid, and let the carrots steam for 8-10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they are tender but still slightly firm.
Step 6
Remove the lid and cook for another 2-3 minutes to allow any excess water to evaporate.
Step 7
Season the carrots with salt and black pepper to taste. Stir well to ensure even seasoning.
Step 8
Sprinkle the fresh parsley over the cooked carrots and toss lightly for a pop of freshness.
Step 9
Serve warm as a side dish or enjoy on their own!
