Directions

Preheat the oven: to 200°C.
Prepare the carrots: Peel the carrots carefully and cut their tops off.
Start on the hob: Add all of the ingredients and the peeled carrots into an oven proof saucepan or frying pan. Simmer on medium heat for 10 mins.
Finish in the oven: Place the pan into the oven and cook for a further 30 minutes, or until the carrots are fork tender, but not mushy. All or most of the liquid will have absorbed into the carrots, flavouring them beautifully.
