Rating with ChangesApril 07, 2012 By gail0925
I'm not sure how someone can give a recipe a rating with a drastic change in the ingredients. I tried a glazed carrot recipe with just a tiny bit of orange juice in it, and I could taste it over the carrots. So making it with ALL orange juice and then saying it's just OK seems hardly fair. There should be a section for reviewers who follow the recipe exactly and another section for those who change it. This is a great recipe as is!

I julienned the carrots, added raisins during the boil and sliced almonds at the end. Delicious also the next day as leftovers. I'm making it again now, with raisins, almonds, and ginger.

yum yumOctober 21, 2011 By hhunter628
alright so at the beginning of this recipe I was skeptical..... probably because I have never carmelized carrots before..... I was kinda mad actually. Thinking to myself ""why would you put so much water in here!"" haha.. well... thats why I don't write recipes :) after making it and realizing the water went down I did as mentioned.... It is amazing...(of course I taste tested for 2 men)..... which LOVED them.... thank you so much :) only thing is that it is very sweet.... but thats why you only have a lil at a time...

I used canned carrots instead of baby carrots and it only took about 20 minutes to make. My husband loved it. And now asks for it almost once a week now.

Just add cinnamonAugust 07, 2008 By zummy
Very good, I love this one. My wife and daughter thought it was missing something so we added a dash of cinnamon on top when it was finished cooking.

So sweet & delicious!March 27, 2008 By birdchik
I made these a couple of days ago & loved them! I served them with braised chicken thighs, saffron rice and corn on the cob. I took the advice of the first reviewer and added a little more sugar, but I am sure they would be wonderful just the way the recipe is written. I don't usually cook carrots alone as a side dish, but this makes me want to eat them more often! I would think it's a great way to get kids to eat them too. Thanks for the recipe!

excellentDecember 09, 2007 By Edithann64
This was easy and tasted oh sooo good. The only thing I changed is I added 1/2 cups of brown sugar instead of the 1/3 it called for. My son likes sweet stuff. He came back for more.
