Ingredients

  • 1 cup peeled pearled onions
  • Juice and zest of one lemon
  • 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
  • 3 large peeled carrots cut on a bias diagonally
  • 3 large stalks celery peeled and cut on large bias (diagonally)

  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  • In another sauté pan (doesn’t have to be ovenproof) pour the remaining tablespoon oil and sauté the carrots for 4 minutes.
  • Add the celery and cook for another 2-3 minutes until vegetables are becoming a bit tender, but still retain some firmness.
  • Season with salt, pepper, ginger, and thyme.
  • Combine the onions and carrots and celery and serve as a side to the braised brisket.
