Grate some carrots and add them to the bowl.

Dice half an onion and add it to the bowl with the carrots.

Prepare the dressing by adding olive oil, white vinegar, mint, fresh basil leaves, and a large clove of garlic into a jar.

Add salt and black pepper to taste, close the jar, and shake it well.

Pour the dressing over the salad and mix it.

If needed, use a bigger bowl to mix it easier.

Let the salad sit for 30 minutes to absorb all the dressing.
