Sautéed Carrots with Bacon & Onion
Preparation and cooking time:
25 minutes
Based on an Italian recipe using pancetta. The bacon works well with the sweet carrots and cooking off the pan juices leaves them with a lovely glaze.
Ingredients:
- 2 - 3 medium carrots, 240gr, 8.5oz
- 1 tsp olive oil, 4.5gr, .16oz
- 2 slices bacon or Prosciutto (different taste...), 16gr, .56oz cooked, drained bacon
- 1 small onion or 1/2 large, 88gr, 3.1oz
- pepper
Instructions:
- Peel carrots, cut in half, then each half again so you have carrot sticks.
- Chop onion.
- Put oil in small skillet and add bacon, frying until crisp.
- Remove bacon and all but 1 tbs fat.
- Add onions and sauté until transparent.
- Add carrots and 1/4 cup water, cover and simmer until done - about 15 minutes.
- Uncover, turn heat up a bit and cook off pan juices.
- Crumble bacon.
- Add bacon and pepper to carrots and serve.
