12 Reviews of Carrots Vichy

These were a nice change of pace for carrots. I had a ton in the fridge and didn't want the same old carrots as a side for dinner tonight, so I tried this recipe. I liked the sweet/sour tang from the sugar and lemon... I didn't have fresh chives or parsley, so I omitted the garnish. I had to cook the carrots a little longer than suggested to get them tender (maybe we just like super soft carrots). GNOME-TASTIC recipe!

    Like the other reviewers, I am always looking for new ways to prepare carrots. This recipe rocks. Simple and very good. I used baby carrots, and about a teaspoon of sugar, otherwise followed the recipe. I can't wait to try this with parsnips, or a combination of the two together. Made for ZWT5, for the Hell's Kitchen Angels.

    These tasted really good and were easy to make. I followed the recipe exactly but found that they were drenched in butter even after continuing to cook them for a few minutes after the water evaporated, so next time I'm only going to use one tablespoon of butter instead of two. I served these with Jerk Seasoned Steak and Garlic Herbed Mashed Potatoes (Bahama Breeze's Recipe). Made for ZWT5.

    Best carrots I've ever had. Ever. My son, who has never eaten any carrot I've ever served him, asked for seconds!!! I'm still recovering from the shock. Thank you for this easy recipe that's simple enough for a weeknight, but good enough for entertaining. Just wanted to mention that it took me about double the cook time given in the recipe (totally worth it). Made this with Honey Lemon Chicken and Potatoes With Rosemary for ZWT5 Jammin' Java Jivers.

    Lovely carrots! Easy and fast to prepare; love the addition of chives at the end. I used Becel to cut on fat. Thanks for posting. I made this for ZWT5. Rita

    These were great, and a kid pleaser to boot. I only used half the butter, and they were still great. They do take longer to cook than you think, I agree with the other reviewer. Maybe next time I'll have the heat a little lower so the water doesn't evaporate quite so fast. I'll be making these often! (Made for ZWT5, Cooks with Dirty Faces Team).

    We loved these carrots. Like others I only used a pinch of sugar but otherwise made as written. The glaze from the butter, sugar and lemon juice was outstanding. Thanks for a super tasty side dish. Made for the Dining Daredevils team for ZWT5.
