Peel the carrots and cut them into thin julienne strips (matchstick-sized pieces).
Peel and thinly slice the onion lengthwise into julienne-style strips.
If using garlic, peel and finely mince the garlic clove.

Season with salt and black pepper, and stir to ensure even seasoning.
If using garlic, add the minced garlic to the skillet and sauté for an additional 30 seconds, being careful not to burn it.
Cook the carrots and onions for 4-5 minutes, stirring frequently, until the vegetables are tender but still have a slight crunch.
