Preparation

  1. Scrape the carrots. Cut off and discard the stem ends.
  2. Put the carrots in a saucepan and add salt and water to cover. Bring to a boil and cook until tender, about 10 minutes. Drain thoroughly and return the carrots to the saucepan.
  3. Add the cream and mint, and cook until the cream is reduced almost by half. Add pepper and, if desired, salt. Stir the carrots in the cream to be sure they are coated with sauce, and serve.
