    Good flavor and a enjoyable way to get your vegetables. I will make this one again.

    Sorry Alex but these were horrible. I prepared them exactly as given. When they were finished I tasted them for seasoning and then threw them out. A major disappointment since I enjoy you very much and am rooting for you in Iron Chef. But then again everyone is entitled to a mistake now and then.

    I watched the show today, and saw these carrots and made them for dinner tonight. It is absolutely delicious! I will make these carrots again and again, and I am going to try the glaze for my candied yams I make each Thanksgiving. Thank you Alex! Love your show and your judging on Chopped!

    I've never enjoyed cooked carrots before, but these were quite tasty. I used baby carrots and didn't have any rosemary, but they were still really good. Even my picky kids ate them all up. Next time I'll definitely slice the carrots in half to reduce the amount of time it took to get them soft.

    LOVE IT!!! I have made this several times each time with a little twist. I've learned to make a big recipe (1 whole bag 2lb carrots because they go really fast. I sometimes substitute the molasses with real maple syrup (not the pancake but realor I add a little bit of both. The rosemary I like but my family likes it better without. Don't forget the butter at the end as it brings it all together for an almost candied yam flavor.

    Yummy and easy! Doesn't take a lot of attention while you are making other things for your meal. I always cook this for St. Patty's Day dinner and it is a big hit with the family, not too sweet or cloying, just enough to make it everyone's favorite!

    This recipe is the bomb! It went well with the prime rib that I made last Christmas. I actually have my own carrot recipe that's great, but her passion for putting it together made me want to try it. The savory sweet (but not over-the-top sweet taste of these carrots had my six and eight year old coming back for thirds -- no left overs.

    I bought three bunches or fresh carrots to make this dish and wasnt sure if I needed all of them. I decided to make them all and there wasn't a bite left.
    My father-in-law quickly told my mother-in-law to get this recipe and make these carrots! I used maple syrup instead of molasses as someone suggested and it came out great. The presentation was beautiful and looked very elegent. It will be one of my new go to recipes! Thanks Alex!

    I steamed the carrots, always steam or bake veggies.
    for G: frying, even in good olive oil is never LOW FAT.
    I made the sauce on the stove with a smaller mix of olive oil and butter. Yes I know... I grew up on butter and love the taste; however, I wish there was a good sub for butter besides Butter Buds.

    These carrots were pretty good, although I did not have the molasses I used Maple syrup instead (lol but the sauce was still pretty thick. Even my 14month old enjoyed them!
