Pescada Frita com Salada Verde
Fried Hake with Green Salad (without Starchy Sides)
Yes, with a tweak: request no flour breading (if possible, or clarify light seasoning only). About 6g net carbs per serving, lower than 5 in 10 Brazilian dishes.
What it is
Crispy fried hake fillet, typically served with a simple green salad. The modification involves ensuring no breading or a light, keto-friendly breading (if available, otherwise rely on naturally crispy skin) and omitting all starchy sides like rice, pirão, or fries.
Key ingredients
Hake fillet, frying oil (vegetable oil or olive oil blend), salt, pepper, lemon, mixed green leaves, olive oil, vinegar.
How to make it keto
Request no flour breading (if possible, or clarify light seasoning only). Explicitly omit rice, farofa, pirão, or any potato-based sides. Ask for a simple green salad with oil and vinegar dressing on the side.
Watch out for
Potential flour or starchy breading; hidden sugars in salad dressings; cross-contamination from shared fryers.
