Butter-roasted carrots

When I have extra-carrots, this simple recipe is my go to for its delicious results. Carrots are pan-fried in butter with thinly minced garlic and dill. As they caramelize in the pan, they acquire a unmistakable decadent flavor that will just want you to go back for more. Seasoned with salt, pepper, and fresh parsley, these butter-fried carrots make for a colorful, scented, and satisfying side dish.

Here, we have served them on a bed of fresh ricotta cheese, to add a touch of creamy freshness to every bite.
