With a little attention, there won't be any kind of waste.
When all the carrot slices are ready, pour them into a bowl. Take care of the seasoning. Add a tablespoon of extra virgin olive oil, a pinch of fine whole salt and a pinch of ground or freshly ground black pepper. Mix the carrots with a wooden spoon, so as to obtain a uniform seasoning.
