- Arrange the carrots in a single layer in a wide, shallow pan.
- Add the garlic, peppercorns, thyme, butter, salt, maple syrup and nutmeg.
- Pour in just enough stock (950 ml) to barely cover the carrots.
- Cover with a parchment cartouche or a tight lid, leaving a small hole in the centre if using a cartouche.
- Bring to a very gentle simmer over low heat and cook until a thin knife pierces the carrots easily, about 25 to 40 minutes.
- Transfer the carrots to a platter, spoon over some of the broth, and add extra butter if you like.
- Garnish with a few thyme leaves.
