2 tablespoons butter or 2 tablespoons margarine
2 tablespoons brown sugar
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg

Cover, then cook carrots for 15 minutes or until the carrots are tender-crisp; drain well.
Return the carrots to the saucepan.
Mix in the butter or margarine, the sugar, 1/4 teaspoons salt and the nutmeg.
Return the mixture to the heat and cook over low heat, stirring constantly, until the carrots are glazed.
