Ingredients
- 1/2-1 cup water

- 1/3-1/2 cup vinaigrette Moroccan style

Instructions
- Cook carrots either by steaming on the stovetop for 5-10 minutes, or in a pressure cooker or Instant Pot. If cooking in a pressure cooker, set steaming trivet in cooker, add water, bring to boil and set carrots on the trivet.
- If using a pressure cooker, cook for only 1 minute under high pressure and release pressure using a quick-release method. If using an Instant Pot, cook for 3 minutes on the steam setting and then release pressure using QPR (quick pressure release).

- Just before serving, perk up the flavors with a bit of sea salt, if needed.
