How To Make sweet and sour carrots
-
1Place the carrots, olive oil, 1/2 the salt and water in a large saucepan over high heat. Bring to a boil and cook until the water has evaporated, about 7 minutes- keep a watch on them so they don't scorch.
-
2Stir in the onion and cook for 1 minute. Add the sugar and mix. Add the vinegar, pepper, and remaining salt and stir until there is a glaze coating the carrots, about 30 seconds. Remove from the heat and stir in the mint. Place in serving bowl.
