From the “Encyclopedia of Creative Cooking” [the big red
book] comes this gourmet delight. Called for white grapes, I thought red grapes
would compliment the carrots better and rather than the Cointreau brand, I used
the homemade orange flavored liquor my darling makes from vodka. This dish is
up there with the most decadent side dishes on the festive table. Never
made it to a serving dish, ha, the two of us polished it off for lunch yesterday.
CARROTS GRAPES SUPREME
4 cups chopped carrots
2 cups large red grapes
2 Tbsp butter
1/4 cup orange liquor
- Peel and chop the carrots and cook them in water to al denté.
- Meanwhile wash and drain the grapes and drain the carrots.
- Melt the butter on medium heat in a non-stick skillet.
- Add the crispy tender carrots and grapes.
- Pour in the orange liquor and slowly sauté, stirring often for 8-10 minutes.
- Serve immediately.
