Ménage A Trios Glazed Baby Carrots

Serves 4
6 bunches baby heirloom carrots (from the farmer’s market)
¼ cup mae-ploy chili sauce
¼ bunch cilantro
1 pint grape tomatoes
1 cup “Clover Manage a trois” (carrot, apple, ginger juice)
Scrub the carrots with a brush to remove dirt. In a cast iron skillet, sauté the carrots in a little vegetable oil on a low heat to caramelize. Once caramelized, add the mae-ploy chili sauce, tomatoes, and Clover juice. Reduce the liquid to create a “glaze”. Place cooked baby carrots in a serving dish and garnish with chopped cilantro.
