These carrots with a sherry vinegar and molasses glaze offer a sophisticated twist on a classic vegetarian side dish. By simmering the carrots in a mixture of butter and vinegar before reducing the liquid to a glossy syrup, you achieve a deep, complex flavour that balances earthy sweetness with a sharp, acidic finish. The vibrant orange hue and fresh herb garnish make this an attractive addition to any dinner table.
This recipe is particularly useful for entertaining as the initial cooking can be completed several hours in advance. Whether you are serving a traditional Sunday roast or looking for a festive accompaniment, these sweet and savoury carrots provide a nutritious and flavourful highlight. Pair them with roasted meats or nut roasts for a truly comforting homemade meal.

Ingredients for Sherry Vinegar and Molasses Glazed Carrots
6 tablespoons (3/4 stick) butter
1.4kg small carrots (5 to 6 inches long), peeled, trimmed
2 tablespoons mild-flavoured (light) molasses, divided
1/2 teaspoons (or more) coarse kosher salt
90ml Sherry wine vinegar, divided
2 tablespoons chopped fresh Italian parsley, divided
How to make Sherry Vinegar and Molasses Glazed Carrots
Melt butter in heavy extra-large skillet or pot over medium-high heat. Add carrots, 1 tablespoon molasses, and 1/2 teaspoons coarse salt; sauté until carrots are coated with butter mixture, about 1 minute. Add 60ml Sherry wine vinegar and enough water to almost cover carrots (about 950ml ) and bring to boil. Cover and boil 2 minutes. Uncover and boil until liquid is reduced to syrup and carrots are tender, stirring often, about 20 minutes. DO AHEAD: Can be made 4 hours ahead. Let stand at room temperature.
Add remaining 1 tablespoon molasses and 2 tablespoons vinegar to carrots and toss over medium-high heat until carrots are heated through and thickly coated with glaze, about 3 minutes. Stir in 1 tablespoon parsley. Season carrots to taste with more coarse salt and generous amount of ground black pepper. Transfer carrots to large bowl; sprinkle with remaining 1 tablespoon parsley and serve.
