light and tasty side dish to fish or meat

Melt the butter and oil mixture in a pan, add the finely diced onion, allow to cook until translucent, and then add the diced carrots. Lightly caramelize the carrots with the honey and then add the vegetable stock. Sauté gently with the lid on for about 10 minutes. Add the diced apples, drizzled with lemon juice, and cook briefly. The apples should still be slightly firm to the bite, but not overcooked. Add the white wine, a little apple juice, or vegetable stock, and season to taste with salt, pepper, a pinch of cayenne pepper, sugar if desired, a little grated ginger, and lemon juice. Add the Calvados. If desired, thicken with a little potato starch mixed with 1 tablespoon of sour cream. But that’s a matter of taste. Be sure to sprinkle fresh herbs on top: dill with fish, or chives and parsley with meat. For WW: Fat points 2, white wine 1, Calvados 1. Total per portion 2. My dishes are designed for a low-fat diet. You can add more butter, oil and wine at any time according to your taste.
