Belgium. Associated with Belgium by a demonym leading its title: Belgian (confidence 0.55). "Associated with" means only that the evidence named here links this recipe to that place. A recipe isn't labelled as representing an entire country because a source associates it with one, and regional origins are kept where the source gives them.

Method

  1. Clean well the carrots, cut them in dice, and wash them well.
  2. Put them on the fire with enough water to cover them, a bit of butter, an onion well minced, salt and pepper and a dessert-spoonful of powdered sugar.
  3. Place the dish in the oven for at least an hour, and, when you serve it, sprinkle over the carrots some minced parsley.
