I'm from Southern California. You can not find a restaurant that does not have these hot Mexican carrots. Being on the East Coast now, I have had to come up with my own version to duplicate the hot carrots of home.

Ingredients

  • carrots: 6 piece (sliced)
  • jalapeno peppers, with liquid: 1 jar (16 ounce jar, sliced)
  • onions: 2 piece (sliced)
  • vinegar: 1 cup

  1. Place carrots in a saucepan with enough water to cover and cook over medium heat until nearly boiling, 7 to 10 minutes. Immediately drain carrots and set aside to cool.

  3. Mix the liquid from jalapeño peppers and vinegar in a saucepan; bring the mixture to a rolling boil. Remove from heat and pour the liquid into the jars until full. Seal the jars with lids. Place the jars in the refrigerator until cold, at least 8 hours.
