1. In a large skillet, heat the oil over moderately high heat. When the oil is hot, add the carrots, stir to coat with oil and reduce the heat to moderate. Cover and braise for 20 minutes, stirring regularly.
2. Add the garlic, season with salt, stir and continue cooking over low heat until the carrots are almost caramelized and the garlic is soft and tender, about 15 minutes more.
3. Sprinkle with the olives, stir and taste for seasoning. Serve hot or at room temperature.
