a pirates bounty $$$$$ carrot coins $$$$$
We like our vegetables crisp tender, so the time to cook these is fine. If you like them softer, simply cook them longer. This is a great side dish and is delicious either hot or room temperature. And you can add what ever fresh vegetables you would like to this dish. Also I am sorry I don’t have pictures of the finished product…my batteries went dead…and would not hold a charge, so I guess y'all know what I'll be buying today!

How To Make a pirates bounty $$$$$ carrot coins $$$$$
-
Step 1Wash and peel carrots, and slice into coins.
-
Step 2Wash and squash then cut into slices.
-
Step 3These two steps are easy to do if you have a food processor or mandolin.
-
Step 4Peel and slice both onions into strips.
-
Step 5In a bowl mix the coconut milk, salt, pepper, brown sugar.
-
Step 6In a large zip lock baggie add the carrot, squash and onions and pour the coconut milk mixture over them. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour. Be sure to toss the bag every 20 minutes or so.
-
Step 7While the carrot mixture is marinating, mix the soup, vinegar, turmeric, cumin, allspice and tomatoes together and cook till it is thick, and reduced by 1/2 on a low heat.
-
Step 8After that time drain the carrots, squash and onions very well. Some of the coconut milk will remain on the vegetables.
-
Step 9Then add the carrots, squash and onions to the tomato mixture and cook for about 10 minutes on low. You’ll want to stir this often. Cook this longer if you like your carrots softer.
-
Step 10Before you serve top with toasted coconut if you wish.
-
Step 11HOW TO TOAST COCONUT:
-
Step 12There are two ways you can do this:
-
Step 131.Place the coconut on a pie pan and toast in the oven on 375 till it is all golden. I can’t tell you how long this will take, because it depends on your oven.
-
Step 142.On a dry non stick sautéing pan, put the coconut in it and toast on a very low heat. This is the method I used. If you use this method, please do not walk away from the pan....and stir this often.
