Baked carrots with caraway and thyme

Ingredients for 4 servings:

• 500 g carrot(s), young, whole
• ½ tsp caraway seeds, ground
• 1 bunch thyme, fresh
• 125 g butter
• 1 jar white wine
• salt and pepper

Instructions

Working time approx. 15 minutes; Total time approx. 15 minutes

First, preheat the oven to 220 degrees Celsius (gas mark 7). Take about 1.5 meters of aluminum foil and fold it once to make it twice as thick and firm. Place the (cleaned) carrots (some of the green parts can remain) in the center of the foil and sprinkle them with the herbs. Sprinkle the butter in pieces over the foil, season with salt and pepper. Then fold the foil into a tightly sealed package. Before folding the top ends together, pour in the wine and let the whole thing cook in the oven for about 45 minutes. Of course, this side dish can also be made with winter carrots. However, for the sake of appearance and cooking time, cut them into sticks. This side dish goes well with so many dishes and is really quick and easy to make.
