Orange-Glazed Carrots - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    1 lb baby carrots, fresh or thawed frozen
    1/3 cup orange marmalade
    2 tablespoons butter
    2 teaspoons dijon-style mustard
    1/2 teaspoon grated fresh ginger
Preparation
    To cook carrots, heat 1 inch lightly salted water in 2-quart saucepan over high heat to a boil; immediately add carrots.
    Return to a boil.
    Reduce heat to low.
    Cover and simmer 10 to 12 minutes for fresh carrots (8-10 minutes for frozen) or until crispy and tender.
    Drain carrots well and return to pan.
    Stir in marmalade, butter, mustard and ginger.
    Simmer uncovered, over medium heat 3 minutes or until carrots are glazed, stirring occasionally.
    At this point, carrots may be transferred to a microwavable casserole dish with lid.
    Cover and refrigerate up to 8 hours before serving.
    To reheat, microwave at HIGH 4-5 minutes or until hot.
