Caramelized Carrot With Coconut Milk and Peanut Sauce

Sweet simplicity. With a complementary touch of rich savory taste. Please welcome, a sweet-savory healthy snack.

Serving a snack this time I represent the importance of being yourself and not being influenced by what other people say. Because, we live with different goals and different ways.

Before I cooked this healthy snack, someone told me that I was considered uncool just because I didn't do the hobbies that she did. I just kept quiet, saving my energy instead of fighting what the person said.

Then when that person left, I went to the kitchen and decided to calm my mind by cooking. I always use cooking media to calm my emotions, as well as entertain myself when I'm mentally down by someone's words.

I'm not someone who likes to reply to other people's words or actions directly. I just keep quiet and motivate me to be more successful, not more successful because of that person. But more successful than my previous self. So, that way, it will be easier for me to accept myself. I don't do anything to please or prove anyone else.

So, tyhese caramelized carrot is all about being yourself. Not affected by other dishes that have more ingredients.

Even though Caramelized Carrot looks simple, but they look elegant with their beauty. Like humans, even though they are not from rich people or that, they are still beautiful no matter how they look.

Let's see how I serve Caramelized Carrot with coconut milk sauce sprinkled with roasted peanuts.

I have some baby carrots in my fridge. Crunchy and fresh mini carrots. They are also the hydroponic version so they are healthier. It doesn't even matter if you eat it in raw condition.

I look excited to process these carrots into Caramelized Carrots. Well, you can use up to 300 grams of carrots.

The Ingredients

• 100-300 grams of carrots
• 1/4 cup of chopped brown sugar
• 2 tablespoons vegan butter
• a cinnamon stick or 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon powder
• 1/4 cup of peanuts

Cooking Instructions

Roast Peanuts

Roast Peanuts or just fry peanuts without oil. Keep stirring until they look a little burnt.

Remove The Peanut Skin

While the roasted peanuts are still hot, remove the skin and split them in half.

Melt The Butter

Melt the vegan butter with cinnamon stick. Then, add chopped brown sugar.

Melt The Brown Sugar

Cook the mixture until the brown sugar melts nicely.

Stir-fry Carrot

Add carrot and stir-fry for a while. Meanwhile, preheat the oven at 185 degrees Celsius.

Bake Carrot

Transfer the carrot and brown sugar mixture to the baking dish. Then bake them for about 30 minutes per side or until they are tender.

SERVING

Serve Caramelized Carrot with coconut milk sauce and topped with roasted peanuts.

I love how the results look! Savory vegan butter makes sweet brown sugar delicious, doesn't feel boring on the tongue.

The baking method makes the caramel not harden and it turns into a sweet-savory sauce that has the right harmony of flavors.

As a surprise, I arranged Caramelized Carrot on a serving plate in unique shapes. I want to make them look not as Caramelized Carrot. So, people will be curious about the snack offerings.

I hope you guys enjoy my story and my cooking results this time. Just don't stop being yourself and be proud of what you stand for.
