Hachis Parmentier met Bloemkoolpuree
Shepherd's Pie with Cauliflower Mash (Keto)
Yes, with a tweak: the traditional potato mash is replaced entirely with cauliflower mash. About 10g net carbs per serving, on the higher side for Belgian food, so watch the portion.
What it is
A comforting casserole featuring a rich layer of seasoned minced beef (often with aromatic vegetables like celery and onion) topped with a creamy, cheesy cauliflower mash, baked until golden brown.
Key ingredients
Minced beef, cauliflower, heavy cream, butter, onion, garlic, celery, beef broth, tomato paste (sugar-free), fresh thyme, bay leaf, olive oil, salt, black pepper, grated cheese (e.g., Gruyere) for gratin.
How to make it keto
The traditional potato mash is replaced entirely with cauliflower mash. The meat sauce must not be thickened with flour or contain added sugar. High-carb vegetables like carrots should be limited or omitted.
Watch out for
Potatoes in traditional recipe, flour/starch in gravy, sugar in tomato paste/sauce, excessive carrots.
