This is a recipe I dared to duplicate from a caterer at a party I attended and the result was great.
Ingredients:
1 lb carrot, sliced
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons amaretto liqueur
2 teaspoons almond extract
2 tablespoons butter
1 tablespoon cornstarch
1/3 cup honey
Directions:
1. Place carrots in a medium saucepan; cover with water (about 1 1/2 cups). Add salt; cook over medium heat until fork-tender, about 10 minutes.
2. Remove carrots to a warm dish and set aside. Ladle a tablespoon or two of cooking liquid into a small dish and set aside to cool.
3. Add amaretto, almond extract and butter to saucepan; stir constantly until butter is melted.
4. Whisk cornstarch into the small dish of reserved (cool) liquid; whisk cornstarch mixture into saucepan and continue cooking until sauce is thickened.
5. Stir in honey.
6. Return carrots to pan and heat through.
