Cut the brisket into slices. Cut carrots into 1 cm thick slices.
In a heavy-wall saucepan, melt the fat. Fry the brisket in it until crispy. Add the carrots, stir and simmer on a low heat for 2 hours under a lid.
If the moisture evaporates, add a little water. 30 minutes before the end of cooking, add prunes, add a pinch of salt and sugar.
