Steps:

• Combine carrot and sugar, mix well. Add beaten egg, then oil and vanilla and mix well. Combine and sift together the flour, cinnamon, spices, nutmeg, mixed spice, baking soda and salt. Slowly add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture. Pour into greased baking container. Bake for 40 minutes at 355°F or 30 mins if using a shallow container.

• In the same saucepan, over medium heat, melt butter. Add the brown sugar, hot pepper sauce, lemon juice, orange juice (or pineapple juice), cumin, garlic, and chili powder.
• Cook, stirring, for 2 to 3 minutes, or until the sugar bubbles and the spices are fragrant.
• Add the cooked, drained carrots; toss to coat the carrots with the sauce.
• Season to taste with salt; serve.
