| How To Cook: |
|
|
1. Melt the 3 tablespoons of butter in a heavy 10- to 12-inch stainless-steel or enameled skillet set over high heat. Drop in the onion rings and stirring frequently, cook over moderate heat for 8 to 10 minutes, or until they are golden brown.
|
2. Add the tomato, raise the heat and boil briskly, uncovered, until most of the liquid in the pan has evaporated. Then stir in the carrots, salt and cayenne pepper.
|
3. Pour in just enough water (about ½ to ¾ cup) to barely cover the carrots, bring to a boil and cover the skillet tightly. Reduce the heat to low and simmer for about 10 minutes, or until the carrots are just tender.
|
4. Transfer the carrots and the sauce to a heated serving bowl, sprinkle with chopped scallions and coriander or parsley, and serve at once.
