How to make it keto
Crucial to replace traditional straw potatoes with riced cauliflower. Confirm no flour or starchy thickeners are added to the eggs or cod mixture.
Watch out for
Ensure the cauliflower is finely 'riced' and not chunky to mimic the texture. Cross-contamination with potato if deep-fried in the same oil. Hidden sugars in some commercial olive brands.
