There are so many kinds of carrots available at the markets now, and this dish can be made with any of them. For simplicity, go with all orange. If you are looking to add a little color, try the a mixture of red, orange, yellow, and white. Sometimes the red carrots lose their color if you peel them. Consider scrubbing them instead. Some of them are red on the outside and yellow inside. So fun! If you happen to have a little chicken stock around, you can replace the water with stock.
