healthy and delicious, as a side dish or starter

Peel the carrots and slice diagonally into thin slices. Peel the ginger and grate it very finely. In a saucepan, cook the carrot slices together with the orange juice, carrot juice, grated ginger, and a pinch of salt uncovered over low heat until al dente. Cooking uncovered reduces the carrot and orange juice, allowing the flavors to infuse the carrots. Season the cooked carrots with 1 teaspoon of honey and stir in a small knob of butter. If you like, you can also refine the dish with a squeeze of freshly squeezed lemon juice. Sprinkle some chopped parsley decoratively on top. Serve as a side dish or as a delicious appetizer.
