1 teaspoon toasted sesame oil Ask a question about this ingredient
Place a medium-sized saute pan over medium heat and add the sesame seeds. Cook them for about a minute, tossing them to toast them evenly. Add the five spice powder and toast it until it is fragrant, about 30 seconds. Remove the pan from the heat and pour the mixture into a bowl. Use a clean paper towel to wipe out the pan.
Ask a question about this stepReturn the pan to the heat and raise the heat to high. Add the sesame oil and when it is hot, swirl it around the pan. Add the carrots and let them sit for a minute or two without stirring so that they brown. Add the slivers of garlic.
Ask a question about this stepStir the carrots or, if you are feeling chef-y toss the pan so that the carrots all flip and cook on the other side. Continue to cook, stirring or tossing so that the carrots brown evenly, until they are tender but still crisp, about 10 minutes. Add the sesame seeds and five spice powder as well as the toasted sesame oil and stir to coat the carrots evenly. Serve immediately.
