A delightful side dish featuring tender carrots and sweet raisins, enhanced with a cinnamon glaze.
Peel and slice the carrots into even pieces.
Even slicing ensures uniform cooking.
Dice the onion finely.
A small dice allows the onion to cook evenly and blend well with the carrots.
In a medium saucepan, combine the carrots, onion, raisins, butter, cinnamon, salt, and water. Cover and cook over low heat, stirring occasionally, until the carrots are tender, about 15 minutes.
Stirring occasionally prevents sticking and ensures even cooking.
Add the brown sugar to the saucepan and stir until it dissolves and coats the carrots evenly.
Adding the sugar at the end prevents it from burning and ensures a smooth glaze.
Serve the glazed carrots warm as a side dish.
Garnish with a sprinkle of fresh parsley for a pop of color.
