Sweet and Spicy Mashed Carrots














This was a perfect "comfort food" side dish. The carrots combined with the sweetness of the honey and the spice of the chili powder made this a really complex dish. It has the perfect flavors for fall.

1 1/2 pounds of carrots, halved lengthwise and cut into 1" pieces
1 T unsalted butter
2 t. honey
1/2 t. chili powder
coarse salt and pepper, to taste

Place carrots in a steamer basket in a saucepan with 2 inches of water, simmering. Cover and steam until tender, about 30 minutes. Transfer to a bowl and mash, leaving a few lumps. Stir in the butter, chili powder and honey until well-combined. Season with coarse salt and black pepper, to taste.
