Ingredients

• 600 g Carrot ( peeled and sliced diagonally )
• 2 tbsp Miso ( paste )
• 2 tbsp mirin
• 1 tbsp White sugar
• 20 g Minimum butter sweet
• 1 tsp Ginger powder
• 1 tbsp Sesame seed ( for garnish )
• 100 ml Mineral water

Instructions

1. Preparing the carrots

   Peel the carrots. Slice them diagonally into 2 cm thick pieces to ensure even cooking.

2. Cooking with butter

   In a sauté pan, melt the butter. Add the carrots and a splash of mineral water. Cover and cook until the tip of a knife enters without resistance.

3. Making the glaze

   Mix the miso, mirin, white sugar, and ginger powder. Pour this mixture over the cooked carrots.

4. Final glazing

   Increase the heat. Stir constantly so the sauce coats every piece. When the liquid becomes syrupy and the carrots shine, remove from heat and sprinkle with sesame seeds.

Chef's tips

• The sauce should coat the spoon: if it's too thin, increase the heat without burning the sugar.
• Do not add salt, the miso already provides all the necessary saltiness.

Storage

Keep for 2 days in the fridge. Reheat in a pan with a drop of water to loosen the glaze.
