Carrots In Orange Basil Butter ( Mw )
Ingredients
1 med. carrot *
1 tbsp water
1 tsp butter or margarine
1 pinch orange peel **
1 pinch dried basil, crushed
1 snipped parsley (opt.)
Preparation
* Carrot should be cut into Juilenne strips. ** Orange peel should
be finely shredded.
Place the carrot strips in a 10-ounce casserole. Sprinkle with water.
Micro-cook, covered, on 100% power for 1 to 1 1/2 minutes or just
till the carrot strips are crisp-tender. Let stand, covered, while
preparing butter mixture. For butter mixture, in a custard cup
combine butter or margarine, orange peel, and basil. Micro-cook,
uncovered, on 100% power for 15 to 30 seconds or till the butter or
margarine is melted. Drain carrot strips. Drizzle butter mixture over
carrot strips. Garnish with snipped parsley, if desired.
