Note

The "pickled" ingredient likely refers to pickled jalapeños or pickled onions based on common pairings. Adjust the quantity to taste for desired heat or tanginess.

For a creamier texture, you can add a splash of vegetable broth while cooking the carrots.

Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat gently on the stovetop.

Ensure the frozen carrots are cooked through but still retain some bite for the best texture contrast with the soft garlic.
