It's a shame, because carrots are full of minerals and vitamins.
In particular provitamin A, vitamins B1, B2, B3, B6, vitamins C and E, iron, phosphorus, potassium...
Fortunately, there is a very simple trick to keep them all their nutritional value while waiting to sit down to eat.
The trick is to sprinkle the grated carrots with lemon juice . Watch:

2. Wash them under running water.
3. Grate them.

5. Pour the lemon juice over the grated carrots.
There you go, your carrots will keep all their vitamins while waiting to eat :-)
