Guest guest Posted September 20, 2005 Report Share Posted September 20, 2005 These are very good and a very unique twist to cooked carrots. "Sesame Carrots" 2 5 inch strips of kelp or kombu 3/4 cup water 4 med/large carrots 1 Tblspn. sesame oil 1/2 tsp. rice vinegar or white wine (optional) 1 tsp. toasted sesame seeds for garnish Soak kelp or kombu in water for 10 mins. until soft. Then bring water to a boil and simmer for 20 minutes. Set aside. Slice carrots in diagonal to about 1/2 inch thick. Slice the seaweed into thin strips. In a heavy skillet place carrots, sesame oil, rice vinegar and saute for 5 minutes. Add sliced seaweed and cooking water to the carrot mixture, cover, bring to a boil and simmer for 10 minutes. Stir occasionally until seaweed and carrots are tender. Season to taste with salt & pepper. Serve with sesame seeds sprinkled over top for garnish. Each serving has 52 mg. of calcium. 9 gm of carbs. Lots of minerals "In the present position of the planets, it's impossible to say;Just when I'll find my course again, with the boulders in my way.I should be rolling down the skyway on my cosmic wheels;Instead of stumbling down this highway on my boots of steel"Source: Cosmic Wheels by Donovan for Good Click here to donate to the Hurricane Katrina relief effort.
