All done



Caramelized Carrots and Pearl Onions

Ingredients:
1 bag baby carrots
2 cups of pearl onions
1 tablespoons olive oil
1 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoons brown sugar
1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
½ cup water

Directions:

  1. Put the oil, carrots and onions in the pan and let them sit. You want them to develop flavor so don’t touch them.  Leave them until they are nice and brown.
  2. Add in the water.
  3. Cover and simmer for 10 minutes. Until all the water is gone.
  4. Add in the brown sugar and cider vinegar. Boil until it is thick and syrupy, and all is covered.  It takes about 5 minutes.

    1. Yes I redid it this weekend. I'm glad you like it. Pearl onions are easy to forget about but they seem to make any meal look fancier. They are delicious and if you buy them frozen you don't have to deal with peeling them.
