Posh Carrots And Peas
This recipe combines the natural sweetness of carrots with the bold flavors of orange juice, red wine, and aromatic spices. Slowly simmered to create a rich sauce, the carrots are then roasted until tender and caramelized. The final touch of vibrant green peas adds a burst of freshness to this colorful and flavorful dish. Top with optional pea shoots for an extra layer of texture and visual appeal.
