Maple Glazed Carrots

This is a very simple dish, quick to make and tasty. My wife whippets it up in a jiffy.

INGREDIENTS:

1-1/2 cups carrots (NOT the baby ones!)
1 Tbsp maple syrup
1/8 to ¼ tsp dried tarragon

PREPARATION:

Wash and peel the carrots and cut them to a uniform size on the diagonal. Larger section can be first cut in half lengthwise. Keep them close to the same size so they cook evenly. 

COOKING:

Set a 2 Qt. sauce pan over medium heat and add enough water (Demineralized) to make 1” in depth. Add the carrots and bring to a steady boil. Reduce heat; cover and simmer for 3-4 min. or until tender (some resistance to a paring knife entering a carrot.)
Drain in the pan and add the tarragon and syrup mixing well.  Serve hot with a green sprig of herb for garnish.
