Servings: 6-8
Preparation Time: 20 mins
- 5 cups shredded fresh carrots
- 2 cups coconut milk*
- 1/2 cup honey [2]
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cardamom
- pinch salt [3]
- 1/4 cup coconut cream concentrate [4]
- 1/4 cup golden raisins
- 1/4 cup cashew pieces [5]
In a heavy saucepan, heat the carrots, coconut milk, honey, and vanilla until the mixture comes to a low bubble. Reduce heat to medium and cook, stirring frequently, until the carrots are tender.
Stir in cardamom, salt, and coconut cream concentrate and continue cooking until the mixture is thick and most of the liquid is absorbed. Remove from heat and stir in the raisins and cashews. Serve warm.
*For the freshest coconut milk make homemade coconut milk [6]. (See video at this link [7].)
