This recipe was originally from a Food Channel recipe that sounded quite delicious and would work well with the roladen I was serving.
This was easy enough to modified for our personal taste. For a little sweeter taste add sugar, for a little more tartness, add a little lemon.
Ingredients
250 g (8 oz) carrots, julienne
110 g (1 C) cranberries, coarsely chopped
12 g (3 tsp) brown sugar
juice of 1/2 a lemon
salt/pepper to taste
Directions
Preheat 350 degrees
Combine rough chopped cranberries, julienne carrots, brown sugar, and the juice of one lemon in an oven proof dish.
Cook for 1 hour or until carrots are tender. Season to taste.
The original recipe called for butter and more sugar which would obviously enrich the flavor, but at the expense of a couple hundred calories and the fat of butter. The carrots and berries are tart and enjoyable without the extras, especially if you like “tartness” and the flavor of cranberry.
