My mums grated brandy butter carrots. This is so simple. I grate a carrot per person, then melt it down in 2 large tablespoons of brandy butter (the recipe is in another post). Add in the carrots, 1/2 glass of water and season with salt and pepper. Essentially all you do is sweat the carrots for 10-12 minutes or until they have wilted down and tinged a little caramel in places. That. Is. It.
