Method
0 of 3 done- Fill a pot with water to a depth of a couple of centimetres and bring it to the boil.
- Arrange the carrots in a steamer basket and suspend it above the boiling water, ensuring the carrots are not submerged.
- Steam the carrots for 5 to 30 minutes, depending on their size, covering the pot loosely to allow some steam to escape. Check the water level periodically and top up if needed. Test for doneness by piercing a carrot with a fork; it should slide in easily, or taste a piece.
