Method

Peel the carrots and slice them small, and then par boil (10 minutes in boiling water).
Peel and chop the garlic.
In a heavy pan fry the mustard seed, turmeric, garlic, and chilli for a minute or so.
Add the par-boiled carrots and stir them round until they are coated with the spice mixture.
Add a little salt, cover the pan, and simmer gently for 5 minutes.

To serve

Just before serving, splash with a little lemon juice, or provide a lemon quarter to each person.

Variation

In place of chilli powder use a fresh green chilli, de-seeded and sliced fine.
Instead of the lemon juice, provide a lemon quarter each.
