Serve up some Cider-Glazed Carrots at your Christmas table this year, adding a bit of sweetness and tang to the normal lineup of Christmas-centric sides.
1 Trim the tops and bottoms of the carrots. Peel them, then chop into 1" pieces.
2 Pour the olive oil in a pan, and once warm, sauté the carrots for 5 minutes.
3 Sprinkle in the sugar, stirring into the oil and carrots, cooking for about a minute.
4 Add in the cider and stock. Bring to a boil, then stir in the mustard.
5 Partially cover the pan, and simmer for another 10-12 minutes or until the carrots are tender.
6 Remove the lid and continue cooking until the liquid has reduced to a thick sauce.
7 Serve warm, and enjoy.
