It may look like a sad little package shoved in the back of your freezer, but frozen spinach actually has a lot of culinary uses (and some may surprise you).


1 pound carrots, cut diagonally into 1/2-inch-thick slices
2 tablespoons olive oil
3/4 teaspoon cumin
1 cup water
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
1 teaspoon honey
1/2 teaspoon fine sea salt
1/8 teaspoon black pepper
Cook carrots with oil and cumin in a 3-quart heavy saucepan over moderate heat, stirring, until well coated, about 1 minute.
Add remaining ingredients and simmer, uncovered, shaking pan occasionally, until liquid is evaporated and carrots are tender and glazed, about 20 minutes.
Serve warm or at room temperature.

Excellent! We loved the cumin-honey glaze on these carrots. It's an easy way to dress up a simple vegetable. The flavor is not too sweet or spicy and you can still taste the fresh carrot flavor. Very good.
