This elegant vegetarian side dish brings a sophisticated twist to the classic glazed carrot. By simmering tender young carrots with aromatic cloves, bay, and peppercorns, you create a deep base of flavour that perfectly complements their natural sweetness. The addition of clementine juice and Sherry provides a bright, acidic lift, resulting in a glossy glaze that makes this dish a standout addition to any festive spread or weekend roast dinner.
These spiced glazed carrots are particularly practical for hosting, as they can be prepared up to four hours in advance and gently reheated just before serving. The fresh tarragon and citrus zest added at the final moment provide a fragrant, herbal finish that pairs beautifully with roasted meats or nut roasts. It is a simple yet refined way to elevate humble root vegetables into a vibrant, seasonal highlight.
