Simple, excellent, well-balanced in flavors, I will make it again. I didn't have gingerbread on hand, so I used some spiced cookies spread with a bit of mustard. -

A little tip: if you put your carrots directly with the onions as mentioned in the recipe, after 2 hours and 45 minutes, your carrots will have lost all their vitamins and will be reduced to a puree ;-) a nutritionist's advice. Cook them so that they remain slightly crunchy. -

Recipe made, right now It's simmering. We tasted the sauce with the tip of the spatula and MY GOD! We're already salivating *-* My suggestion: Maybe a little less brown sugar for those who don't like it too sweet. Especially if the gingerbread used is very sweet to begin with xD. -

Super!!! According to my partner, who wasn't familiar with this dish: D.E.L.I.C.I.O.U.S.!!! For my part, I found what makes it one of my favorite dishes! My suggestion: Definitely pair it with fresh fries and a good beer. -
