Method
Simmer the carrots with water, honey and salt until they are almost tender. Heat the fat in a small frying pan, add the flour and fry, mixing all the time, until the flour is pale brown and omits a pleasant nutty aroma. Add to the carrots and mix well season with pepper and cook for further 5 minutes or until the sauce is thickened. If the sauce is too thick, dilute with some orange juice. Serve hot.
