Carrots with Garlic and Cilantro

6 big carrots (1.5 lbs)
4 cloves of garlic
½ bunch of fresh cilantro
¼ tsp each of salt
and pepper
2 x ½ cup of water

Brush carrots clean and cut off bases and tip of each carrot. Slice carrots into ¼- to 1/8-inch thick rounds. Remove germ of garlic and slice it into small pieces. Remove stems of cilantro and cut leaves only into small pieces. Place sliced carrots and garlic in a non-stick skillet with a ½ cup of water, cover and bring to a boil on high heat. Reduce to medium high heat and boil for 5 minutes, making sure there is always a little water in the pan and add a little if needed. Add salt, pepper, cilantro and mix. Add another ¼ cup of water. Boil for another 3 minutes, and again make sure there is always a little water in pan and add a little if needed. Drain if needed and serve.
