Glazed Carrots

Peel and slice the carrots on the diagonal. In a wide heavy based pan, melt the butter and add the carrots, sugar, salt, pepper, wine and water till halfway up the carrots. Bring it to a simmer and cook until the carrots are tender. Shake the pan from time to time. Remove the carrots and boil the liquid until reduced to a thick glaze. Add the carrots and toss to cover them. Adjust the seasoning and sprinkle with parsley.
