- Cut the carrots uniformly so they get cooked evenly at the same time.
- Use fresh thyme to provide the best flavor. You can also use dried thyme, but fresh is preferable for a more vibrant taste.
- To check if the carrots are done, pierce them with a fork or knife. They should be tender but not mushy. The edges should be slightly crispy.
