To make the dish, the tenderest young, sweet carrots are chosen. These are scraped and boiled tender. Then they are cut lengthwise in halves, dipped in thickest honey and placed in a baking dish, with the bottom thinly covered with olive oil. They are then thickly sprinkled with grated cheese and salt and placed in a hot oven and browned over for perhaps fifteen minutes.
