Let’s make it.

Place carrots, water and salt in a frying pan. Cover and simmer until almost tender.
Uncover and allow most of the water to evaporate.
Add butter and maple syrup and toss gently over low heat.
Serve once tender and lightly glazed. Watch the syrup so it does not burn.

A little kitchen note

Cut carrots evenly so they cook together. This is a maple-themed home side, not a claim of exclusive Canadian origin.
